i use 2 bolt dove blocks a lot for customers engines,u can tell w the main caps when we make over or around 800 hp the caps tend to walk,if u want a cheap combo start w/a 88 truck 460 ,they have scj rods,and flat top pistions, use dove heads, we have thousands of mile on off set ground 2yab cranks,and run 14 to one,(sometimes more) comp.the only time the guys have problems is when in the fall i take them apart if they have had a lot of detanation it will sometimes crack the crank,2 cranks in ten years out of a lot of engines,now one that makes 900 hp has been thru a crank a year,in the last 2 years,but hes has a very tight buget, and next year will change his combo all togather

ps just a note........... we cracked our 4.750 crank (sonny b)
this year,, it detanatied real hard, (only 2 times)
