Something that may interest you Shaun. The maincaps from the Buick Supercharged V6 look like a very good fit in the P76 block. Might add some beef short of a cradle. Just throwing that out there...

This maincaps will suit perfectly to one of my girlde plates.

Unfortunately I tried several time to find this maincaps without success. No so easy when you live in Europe LOLL. Greg do you know where I can buy them ?

Nic, this maincaps don't suit later X-Bolted blocks because they are slightly larger than X-Bolted maincaps.
