it was 2 years ago, they bored .5mm over, honed the cylinders and pressed the piston/pins on the rods for me.
just give them a call, my stuff was in their shop for less than a week.
engine is in my car now, boostd 10psi, never had a problem.

Do not hot tank al. with hot caustic solution, it will react with the al. quickly and pit bearing and cam journals.

Most shops in Cali use a jet wash. If you want it looking clean like brand new, have it media or soda blasted.
