If you decide to use the girdle and aluminum cap set up, Laz at Mesa Balancing did the machine work on my RB stroker with the the BCR parts. the only thing I can complain about is cap growth and low oil pressure if i let the idle go below 800 rpm. i did change to a Milodon 21814 pump which helped some. Oil pressure over 900 rpm or cold any rpm is fine.


Do you know what the main bearing clearances were set at?
