Re: New block
I remember seeing one example of a "whole pan rail" girdle. It's been a while so I can't remember the details of whether it incorporated the caps or if it just surrounded them and augmented structure there. A special pan had to be fabricated but it looked like it was going to beef things up pretty well.
Just about every avenue has been explored before with these engines. They are truly an Icon in the histories of automotive development and racing technology.
