Fits: 2001 thru 2010 Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra 2500HD/3500HD LB7/LLY/LBZ/LMM Duramax Diesel

Duramax engines are known for main cap movement on stock motors and it gets worse with more horsepower. The main cap movement can cause premature bearing wear or even worse, catastrophic engine failure. DmaxStore's Billet Main Girdle will eliminate the main cap movement. DmaxStore has these 1/2" thick billet steel girdles made right here in small town USA. This kit also includes the necessary, longer ARP hardware to provide the extra support your Duramax engine needs. This one piece girdle will help eliminate movement by tying all the main caps together to the oil pan rail, providing extra strength and durability. Anytime you are rebuilding the motor, it is highly recommended to install our billet main girdle for extra strength and support. Unlike some of the competitors, the DmaxStore Billet Main Girdle has cutouts for the oil pick up tube so there are no modifications necessary to the oil pick up tube.

Features:

• Provides additional support to the bottom end of the Duramax block
• ARP studs for proper fitment and additional strength
• Cross bolts help keep the main caps from causing catastrophic engine failure

Includes:

• DmaxStore Performance Billet Main Girdle
• ARP Main Stud Kit and Oil Pan Hardware Kit (1/2" longer to accommodate for girdle thickness)

DmaxStore Notes:

• The two factory bolts from Flywheel/Flexplate Cover to Upper Oil Pan will not be used after installing this Billet Main Girdle. This will not cause any leaks or strength concerns.
• If factory main caps are used, they will need to be machined so they are flat with the main girdle. This is recommended to be performed by your engine machine shop. No modification needed if Billet Main Caps are used.
• If you are using any aftermarket high capacity oil pan on your vehicle in conjunction with this girdle, it may cause interference with the factory crossmember.
