my AAN building is going to begin soon.i came across getting another AAN block for free but it's missing the main bearing caps and crankshaft.the question is can i use the main bearing caps from another AAN and have it line bore and hone?or they need the NEW main bearing caps in order to get line bore and hone to match this bare AAN block?

Everything new is the way you building a new block . -
The caps are line bored to each engine case. You should not be used from something else. Although you can get them line bored but I don't think it's a good move fella. Your better off starting with a good engine. You do not want to do it twice.
Also it will cost more time and money,and heartache. DON'T do it !!!.Comment
