This stiffens the block and makes the fragile main caps the 2JZ has less prone to cracking under extreme conditions.
Installation should be done by a professional only, this is just the girdle.

- 350 Grade Mild Steel (HEAVY DUTY)
- - 6mm Thickness
- - Direct Fit (no trimming required)
You will need bolts and or studs/nuts to suit this setup.
Depending on your Main cap configuration you will need to order the correct bolts from ARP to suit.
Two ways of doing this install :
1: Would be machining the cap's flat, so this can sit directly on top of Main Caps and allowing you to run the factory Main Bolts / ARP off the shelf Stud kit.
2: Would be machining up spacer's/tubes to raise the girdle just enough to clear the "hump/bump" of the Main Caps and thus resulting into requiring longer Main Bolts / ARP studs (We suggest contacting ARP for these studs)
*Hot tip: Toyota 3S Beam's HEAD STUDS will work (the longer studs are the right ones that the kit's come with)
Grade 350 Mild Steel is a medium Strength structural steel plate product with nominal yield strength of 350 MPa. It's a heat treatable plate grade for general engineering applications.
