I'm sure you can polish it while assembled if it is out of the car, but I'm learning just how much work a polished aluminum surface takes. I have a spare intake plenum for my car that I decided to polish. I've ground half the mold seams off and started sanding the cast surface smooth to prep for polishing. I've got 4 hours of work in it and I'm only half way to even being ready to start to polish! I can't imagine how long doing an engine block would take!
