I don't understand what machining you mean.

Is there any opinion as to whether the slugs shoud be mounted radially a la' Hammer's crank, or transverse mounted in the counterweight? Not trying to start anything, just wondering if anyone has heard of opinions of one way over the other.

My thrust bearing didn't have the center channel that your's does. Did your bearing come that way? I'm wondering if maybe because mine's a squirter block that it is different. I'm having mine machined to look like yours so that it will have the channel. I'm told its to help facilitate the Chevy oiling passagways in the stroker crank.
