The entire engine is metric;
Bore-116mm
Stroke-107mm
Bore spacing-125mm
Notice the odd bore spacing. A Chevy crank does not drop in. It’s also got an 8-bolt flywheel pattern.
Closed valley, non-Chev deck height (no lifters to account for). Diesel-style thermostat in valley controls closed cooling temp)
168T ring gear, Chev-style marine starter and alternator, rod and main bearings are all that is used from The General.

What is Bespoke? Rolls Royce motor? Bentley? Just a term?
The word bespoke (/bəˈspoʊk/) has evolved from a verb meaning 'to speak for something', to its contemporary usage as an adjective. Originally, the adjective bespoke described tailor-made suits and shoes. Later, it described anything commissioned to a particular specification (altered or tailored to the customs, tastes, or usage of an individual purchaser). In contemporary usage, bespokehas become a general marketing and branding concept implying exclusivity and limited runs.
Who manufactures the long block for Mercury?
