Re: 4 bolt main

The syty uses a standard LB4 4.3 block and caps. and they are all 2 bolts :lol:
:2cents: IF you do the 4 bolt conversion, the cap closest to the dipstick is going to have to be notched to clear the dipstick (you can see it on the third from the left here)

God I wish they made our blocks deep skirts.

So you know how down right awesome that would be. We could not only get a griddle. But probably go 6 bolt main's.

haha, that would be pretty sweet. But somehow I don't think they'll be making an LSx v6 anytime soon :lol:

I'd settle with just the deep skirt then, like the buick guys have *sigh* stock. lol.

Re: 4 bolt main

Syclones have special main caps from the factory. they are nodular iron. when converting to 4 bolts in the center you use regular sbc conversion caps and a std 2 bolt steel cap on the front.
