Exactly !!! it just seems that it gives you bragging rights, and just to inform on the direction I am going was a 383 stroker kit, everything I have been reading says it recommends a 4 bolt block to do the stroker motor. What is your guys feelings on that ? I just do not want that oh crap moment later down the road while I am trying to enjoy a cruise with my wife.

I may go with a set of splayed caps, just seems to be cheap insurance for something you are pouring your life savings into.
