Update 15 March 2017:
More update coming for MK2S version.
Update 30 Oct 2016:
Work in progress, removed rear block as there is a flaw in design and dimension. Will udpate soon.

Installation completed, final fine alignment is done by tighten the prints (compression).
Original Prusa Mk2 kit is hard to build and extremely hard to align. It is assume that a well aligned printer will be quiet and less uneven wear to your bearings.
This is a modified Y-axis block is designed to be a drop in replacement for the "Original Corner Blocks"
All file are version 5.0.
Print time is 4 hour per block.
Adv:
Can be use together with LCD without problem.
Drop in replacement, use lesser nuts and bolts.
Ideal position for Y motor mount
Work with damper or without damper motor configuration (Just need to offset pulley)
Work with IGUS RJZM-01-08, which is 16mm in diameter (1mm bigger than default lm8uu)
Easier way to make PRUSA perpendicular
