Anything done to support that ****ty 2bolt main block?
Valley/Main Cap girdle would be a nice start.
500rwhp is something kind of stressful to the block's of our years.

But my vote is for Hellion or if you have the skills, fab your own kit.

ya 500rwhp is pushing the limit of the block and trans. if it was me, id build a home made kit cause it would be cheaper but if you cant weld or bend tubes then its not worth it

My vote is for HP Performance. I will say that I do NOT have a kit nor do I have experience with any of the companies. I did however call a lot of companies about their products for my car and by far, HP was the most helpful and knowledgable.
