I'd want something that could fit 7a blocks as well and suits fwd setup

[Flannelman]

As long as the 7A block is dimensionaly the same in the crank area as a 4A block then yes it will fit.

Also not to be mean but I would probably go to Barry/Mrp for something like this :p

Might pay to go via him for options

Selling an untested product that has gains which are impossible to quantify, which adds no power what so ever, costs a lot of money, and is only applicable for 0.1% of people who own the engine its for.

Cant see a huge (any) market for this until you do something like prove that a standard bluetop wont explode at 10,000rpm with one fitted or something...

Not that it's really possible given the other mods etc required to do so.

Just like to say we are implementing our design and its $550 incl ARP studs.
We have already pre sold a few.

Its not for all, more for the series track racer who is always up there at 9k+ and wants their bearings to last longer. Spend $10k+ to build a 200hp+ 4age, may as well throw in additional safety to get more miles out of it and not throw that $10k down the drain when something lets go because of block flex.

Done!
