so my question is...can you stregnthin the block or convert it to 4 bolt to handle the power or is it just too much work and not worth it?

and im just wondering how much do you think a 2 bolt main would hold up to roughly?
summit makes 4 bolt main conversion i did it to my 350 block the 2 outer bolts are on an angle and they claim its stronger than a factory 4 bolt main setup the kit wasnt much but i had to get it line bored, but i did a bunch of machine work to the block. i think the line bore was 200 or 400 bucks

i can take some pics if you would like
