Has this block been main studded? High volume or stock pump?(If high volume, do not run a stock style intermediate shaft.Mopar makes a sweet broached one.)
no studs (yet) and the lower end is stock. I'm wondering if a stud and some mill work will help my new situation with the cap at this point
Is there a way to identify an original end cap? it sounds like one can't just slide the bearing out and slap in another cap. I swear I always finger tightened the bolts all the way on and then torq'd to 30#. But I was begining to wonder if the hardware was too long. I was putting on shorter bolts when this happened.
