well if they do not want to do it on the main caps being on the thin side put a good stud girdle on it with main caps. then they have to be bored and have more metal. maybe they will like that.

440jim did it to his 400 , no problems reported , that I have seen . A plus is better choice of main bearings .




I actually copied his build way back when...and hoped he'd chime in... if he remembers me... I have a place to do it (Weston Machine) and also the main girdle from Chenoweth... I'm trying to get this project up and running again... Really I would like to see some pics if anyone has any? Or links I could check out......
