I think any caps from L-16 through L-28 should work. Although the thrust bearing caps are different How many do you need? Which ones? I need all of them.

If not, I would source an L28 block and go that way. If I wanted to keep numbers matching, I would try to source a seized or blown up block off of CL. The block will have to be "line bored" anyway once you install new caps. It probably won't be much if any cheaper to just source caps because it renders the donor block useless.

IronKen Posted October 26, 2018 Author Share #15 Posted October 26, 2018 Yes I am trying to keep it a numbers matching car. I secured some caps and bolts this morning and hopefully they will work and just need a slight line bore. Thanks for your help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
