Chad, I have a box full of main bolts with nuts that are used but appear to be good. I also have a set of re-babbetted main caps that are .010 over. I am in Rhinebeck. You are welcome to come and look for yourself.

@John iaccino, Thank you for the offer. I don't think the rebabbitted caps will suit me for a new build with a Scat crank. I may hit you up on bolts though.

Chad:
the .010" "over" caps that John has should work for your application , assuming that you have re-babbitted the block and have to linebore ... opposite to the terminology i would use , the "over size" term for bearings in automotive use seems to mean a smaller diameter than "standard " ... so i would assume the .010" oversize diameter would be 1.240" to fit a 1.2385 diameter crankshaft ... your standard Scat crankshaft will be 1.2485" diameter ... this allows for boring .005" per side to finish diameter ...always an optimist ...Gene French

Chad, just sent you a PM. I have a set of main caps that need to be re-babbetted.

Chad:
not sure what is meant by the term " uncut " main caps , but if you need re-babbitted caps that are not bored then i can supply a set of re-babbitted caps that are cast at 1 1/8" diameter and .03" excess material on each thrust surface for finish boring and cutting of the thrust clearance ... always an optimist ...Gene French

What I meant by uncut was not filed on the mating surface.

Still looking for a set of reasonable cores and bolts. Thank You
