[TPR] Pantera Values

[Kirby Schrader]

Yes, you can if you have the main caps.
You may find though, that to make them fit, you’ll have to line bore too much.
It all depends. I’ve got at least two sets of 4 bolt caps that I’m not using.
If you’re interested, you can try them.

If you are really desperate for a block, I might be able to find time to tear one or more down to mic the bores before SSCC.  Then, assuming I find one suitable, we could haul it in the truck to Ely.
