Re: Something I've Been Working On...

It's going to be too late for the dowels if the engine is already in. They need to be machined in and then line honed afterwards. The ARP mains are 1mm smaller than a stock main bolt, so they have some slop in them. I would honestly think about taking the mains back out and putting stock bolts in. Mine lasted 11k miles and was crankwalked .115" because of that.
