My grandfather rebuilt it in 1988, bored decked, supposedly offset ground according to the paperwork from the now out of business Hoosier Parts Machining but with Rusty’s post above, I’m not so sure about the off set grinding.

You never know. Maybe they did it to raise compression some. How far up in the bores do the pistons come at TDC? That would be a dead giveaway. If they are "around" .100" in the hole...... .060 to maybe a max of .120 it's stock. If they are higher than that, it might be offset ground. It was a popular way to gain compression in an otherwise stock engine.
