Tolarances on piston ring gaps like that will never come out of a GM, ford, dodge, honda, toyota, hyundai or kia factory.
Also floated the piston wrist pins with about a .001'' gap, as far as I know most pistons wrist pins are still push fit.
Then I went through 3 sets of main bearings to get the main bearing fit I was after.
Also ported the cylinder heads.

All I can say is wow, I wish I had the skills and patience to do that.
Did you balance the reciprocating assembly as well?
