Hi Rick,
=20
=C2=A0
=20
it doesn=E2=80=99t bother me. I=E2=80=99m always amazed what people putting=
to their engines and cars and I listen to the reasons why.
=20
I=E2=80=99m many times question myself if I should put these things to my c=
ar. On the other hand, as long it doesn=E2=80=99t have a problem, I=E2=80=
=99d better leave it alone.

The lesser parts a car has, the lesser parts can fail.

Hey Chris, remind me to never post pictures of the inside of my engines if =
the main cap strap bothers you, haha.=20
=20
=C2=A0=20
=20
As an FYI, from my experience the center main cap is not the problem its th=
e center main web that's sketchy so adding a strap may keep the center main=
cap from coming apart if it splits but it has no effect on stability. I am=
sure some one some where at sometime has spit a center main and that's pro=
bably what started the whole strap thing, don't get me wrong I am not poo p=
ooing the idea just trying to shed a little light into the darkness of the =
dreaded tractor motors.=20

Well it=E2=80=99s finally time to build a new motor... the crack at the rea=
r head bolt just won=E2=80=99t stop leakin anymore...so...
I=E2=80=99ve found the Chevy front strap to use on the center main, but wha=
t are you using for main bolts/studs for the additional length?
How about a complete set of fasteners for the mains? Does ARP make anything=
?
