I have:
3 billet main cap kit
5 billet main caps kit
5 billet main caps with cross bolted center 3 cap kit.
Has anyone done the crossbolted caps?
How about experience with reliable street HP levels of the different caps and stock caps with ARP studs, which I will use with any caps I go with.
My goal is a street driven 72 Challenger with a 512 TFS headed solid roller motor to run 9 anything on the motor, and then stick My 300 HP plate on it and see what it runs.
The trans, rear, and chassis are done already, as is the roll bar. I'll make a trip to the track and see if I get booted for a 9 on the motor once it's sorted. Then put the plate on it and go to a different track and get booted for whatever it runs.
Thoughts on the caps?
Am I overthinking what it needs for caps?
I'll sell whatever caps I don't use, I just want all my options covered before it gets machined.
Big single plane manifold and HP 950 Holley.
Cam will be a Comp Cams solid roller about 272 or so at .050. Ported TFS 270 heads. Compression about 11.0 with Race tec or JE pistons
Billet liteweight 8 bolt aero crank.
Billet 7.1 rods.
Built 8 3/4 w axles, SS type springs (now), or Cal Tracs, relocated front spring perches.
Goal is a fun, limited street, occasional track car.
I'm thinking the 512 should do around 700 HP. Oh yeah, I will half fill the block too.
Thoughts, comments, or suggestions?
