Sorry for if its a stupid question mate but i was just wondering What the block girdle does? Is it a sort of strengthening plate?

Your looks amazing and so aggresive!!!

not a stupid question at all. the girdle links the main journals to the outside of the block and to each other thus reducing movement and block flex.
it is a form of strengthening the bottom end in that way. high revving engine with vibration etc.
v engines suffer a lot more than straight fours and block girdles are more common on them as the crank gets pushed in different directions in relation to the mains.

LMAO :lol:
relax this isnt one of those hugely over the top builds that never seem to finish and end up fizzling out.
:evil: then you end up feeling cheated after following it for so long, and ask the question somwhere down the line what ever happened to this one?
