Has any one ever tried using a tubular dowel for the cap like the H beam rods use? I have access to a Bridgeport so it would just be time and the cost of the dowels, or make my own.



my 4 bolt caps have 1/4" dowel pins in each(1 on
each side)




I'm thinking that would be a little harder for me to locate it properly into the cap. The tubular dowel would be centered right off the bolt holes.



It was easy.... locate the caps with the bearings just
like you would when you check for the clearance on
the crank... then drill straight through the cap
into the block(use a undersize bit then size it with
a ream)
