[QUOTE="88stang88, post: 1484955, member: 17115"] I reached out to John Smith at John Smith Racing. He has a few YouTube videos about these engines and probably has the best how-to video on timing these engines. I remembered that he did not have the same girdle setup on his engine. He said that he just cut the bracing off of them because custom cam lobes wont clear the stock girdle bracing. Which had me thinking that Crankshafts just have main caps without side bracing and they are under a lot more pressure than cam caps/girdles would be. I am either going to leave them be or cut them down. [/QUOTE]
