Gday,

I have a blown 383 clevo stroker with 2 bolt mains, ARP studs, the stage 2 High Energy sump and Mellings High volume pump. I was thinking about getting a girdle. Does anyone have any ideas on brands or fitment.

Cheers,

Matt

Dont waste your cash, get 4 bolt caps instead, preferably factory ones, and have your block line bored to have them suit.

Cheers mate, I'll give Pavtek a call, their unit looks the goods. I also found this on ebay.

Interesting read in the description too.

Has anyone used this before?

Cheers

I picked up a Pavtek girdle today. Nice looking unit. I'll post up how fitment goes and how the sump has to be modified.

This the first thing Iv bought from Pavtek. Gotta say that Matt was really helpful.

Iv sent the main caps off to be nitrided. Has anyone had this done? Worth doing?
