Title: BILLET SPEEWORKS MAIN CAPS
Post by: AZ428STCKER on June 22, 2025, 12:06:37 AM
Has anyone recently ordered billet main caps from the company "Billet Speedworks", having trouble getting a hold of them. Sent emails, called multiple times, no answer... its been 4 months since we ordered a set of billet cross-bolt main caps for a 428 block, can't get a hold of them. I have ordered a set from them before and did not have these issues. Hoping they did not go out of business...

I talked to them about a month ago, and need to order a set.  They were a little tough to get ahold of then, but eventually got back to me after I called, not sure they ever responded to my email. 

Nice guy, easy to talk to, but doesn't seem to use email much.  Wish I had more info

i emailed them as well.  just picked up 2 FE Blocks, one a 105 Mirror block.  The other missing main bearding caps and i would need a full set including front and rear caps.  Just need to get the block to machine shop to see if it can be rebuilt

If anyone gets in touch with them, let me know.  About ready to get a CAD drawing together and have my guy start making them, he's not excited about slowing the machine down, but I need 2 sets too

I am PMing you guys, told him I ordered two sets of center 3, he said he can add more, 4 week lead time.

If you guys want to add to my order you can, reply to my PM or leave a voice mail and tell him Bullock's Power said to call if you want to deal directly

Sounds like he is a one man bad there

Sounds great! I got a reply from you, but regardless when you call leave a call back number. I understand he is the salesman CnC operator, and everything else. He called me back end of day

Ugh, nice guy, but he is killing me with lack of communication.  I think I have 2 sets inbound, but not sure.  Anyone get a delivery date?

I got through to him about 5 days ago. He said he was going to do a run in about two weeks. I had him put me on the list and asked that he call me when they are ready. Chuck (S)

Thanks, I assume he'll run them all at the same time. 

What day and time of day did you call?

Around 12:30-1:00PM. Please realize I have been to sleep several times since then so don't bet on the accuracy of my recall. Chuck (S)

We are looking at making them on the CnC machine, will let you know how it goes in the next week. 

If he would even answer his phone, or call back, I'd be happy enough, but if he isn't excited about it, its just a drawing and a few hunks of steel to get in the game.

More to come.

Ross, If you start making them let me know. I've been calling him every few days leaving a message and phone number. No answers.
Thanks, Chuck (S)

will you be making the rear main cap as well?  I picked up a used block that is missing the rear main cap as well as a couple of the other main bearing caps
