Default Splayed mains

I'm building a 383 and i'm putting splayed mains in. Are these the correct ones from milodon? http://store.summitracing.com/partde...0&autoview=sku

Those appear to be it.
You could also buy the Eagle Brand Splayed Caps for about $90.00 From Summitt as well. They are the ones I'm going with for my 383 build.
Good Luck

I see that those only come with three so do you re use the stock caps for the front and rear?

Some do and some don't. ProGram sells front and rear caps.

Yeah! You have to reuse the factory front and rear caps.
But there are a few places where you can find the front and rear caps.
And there is also a Billet plate kit that just bolts on top of your factory caps. Just have to search a few places. Alot of sponsors on LS1Tech, 1 of them should have them... LMK if you find them or need me to look around for some.
