But.......back in the day........

We used to ship three or four 408/427 Windsors a day for the replicas. The mains aren't really much of an issue with them because very few replicas get over 6000 rpm without the lunatic driving it getting arrested. My Superformance car had a 635 H/P 418 in it and, frankly, it could be a bit of a handful.

The drag racers consistently saw the problem with the mains, usually up around 700H/P and above 6,800.

We still do a fair number for stock block engines, but it is moving toward aftermarket blocks....when we can get them. And that isn't now.
