Rob, Thanks for the info on the roll bar mount. The bar is part of a complete cage that I think is strong enough. Seeing as you build competition engines I have a question for you. I am putting together a 1954 331 Hemi engine for use in a street rod that I hope to build someday. The machine shop that is doing the block work (decking, honing, etc.) just told me today that the crank is perfect except for the thrust surface which is on the #3 bearing in this engine. He is checking to see if a special bearing is available with a thicker thrust surface so that the crank can be machined and used. My question is: Can the crank be built up on this surface and ground so that the standard bearing can be used? Thanks...Mike DeAngelis
