Well the block came with no caps so I'm assuming with aftermarket caps and studs I'm figuring a line bore into the build...the last few small blocks I have used the magnum timing chain tensioners setups with good results
Yep new caps you are thinking right. I’ve never used the tensioners and never felt the need to do so and I’ve heard of issues with them. I can’t afford issues so I invest in good gears and chains. I have 3-4 (360) blocks that I bought off a younger guy that though it was a good idea to throw all the main caps in a box, the same box. That will take me a long weekend probably getting them all matched up. I have a name for guys like that.
