Where is the water drain plug in the Indy max block?? I have one also. Should be drilled and tapped for a 1/8" pipe plug.

I made this bridge out of some scrap. Works good for pulling the caps on my Indy Maxx block I made a bridge for mine as well. Removes the main caps off in a nice easy way.

Getting the caps off a cross bolted block typically isn't too bad. The real benefit, IMO, of the "bridge"; is for installing them. Pushes straight and smooth. Tapping with a mallet can make the bearing shell fall out... That's very cool! I made a bridge for pulling similar to the others, but use long threaded rods threaded into the main stud holes and try to drive each side down even with two wrenches which is a huge PIA. The bridge you made is very slick for driving the caps straight.
