Opted not to use the Toronado oil pan. Thus a couple of the main cap bolts have stand off studs for bolting the Toro windage tray to the caps.

Can I just grind these stand off studs down or am I asking for trouble?

If its a bad idea to grind these off where can I get replacement main cap bolts?

I wouldn't grind the windage tray threaded ends off the main cap bolts. If your interested I'd trade some factory main cap bolts for them. PM me if you want to. There use to be a fellow that went by the handle RevDeCan on the Lisa Madison Oldsmobile site. As I recall (not to be mistaken for someone that doesn't recall) he was in New York. I sent him a rear fender extension with tail light lens for a 1969 Delta. Later Ken

Most people pay dearly for the studed main bolts. Why not just swap them out for normal ones?

Rocketman269V--Bob, Had the regular 455 main cap bolts. Glad I asked. Didn't know the stand off studs were hard to find.

Will be putting the Toro Pan, 2 part windage tray, and 4 stand off studs up for sale. What are they worth? All in good condition.

As always, thank you for your help with this everyone

Why not just trade he made a good offer. They are hard to find but no money in them, I have a can with them in it.

Stand off bolts will go with the Toro pan and windage trays. I purchased non-standoff bolts elsewhere.
