Need to know if there is a washer under any main cap bolt for a 200
I changed out to ARP studs but need to remove one due to oil pump clearance
 
i dont recall any washers for the main caps on any engine i have built. i dont think there is enough room for a washer.
 
Can you cut off the excess length of the stud to clear the oil pump.
Stock main cap bolts do not use washers.
With ARP studs you do use a washer under the nut.
It even possible to notch the casting of the oil pump in a non critical area.
Gene Fiore had to modify the above on his 250 build to get clearance.
