    Jim,

    Do you have any more information about Mr. Ashwill and his girdle?

    It's been a couple of years since I last received an email from Andrew. At that time, his engine/truck was still running great.

    I was wondering if he had ever offered this service.

    It's too bad we can't get the girdle used on the new P400. I'd think that it could (& the older blocks could) be modified to work together. Jim

    That would be awesome. Maybe someone that has one might do a trial fit for us.

    To date, AM General hasn't made engine components available separately. So, I doubt they'd release the girdle as a separate item. Too bad...

    Default 6.5 main stud girdle

    Has blazer or anyone developed and installed a main girdle? Other than the sweet alumimum one. Id like to learn from the experience of others before plowing new ground. Is anyone producing one that connects all main caps. I know that a custom oil pan would be required. Thanks for your input and patience.

    Default main stud girdle blazer

    Is the stud girdle still performing well? Did you make or are you making kits for sale. I can build my own but if someone has already done it and it works why rock the boat?
