Milodon's main caps were used on all five main caps positions, in addition to their high quality, bullet-proof main caps, their main studs were used also to hold everything together. We do this treatment to all 440 block cores for strength and durability. Note the orange colored oil-shedding paint on the block interior. We do that to all our engines.

The crankshaft is a 1018 steel 440 crankshaft. Turned 0.010" under on the rods and mains, it was detailed and balanced to within 1/2 a gram for our application.
