Chrysler Slant 6 225 Billet Main Cap Set – Strength Upgrade for High-Performance Builds
🛠️ Strengthen Your Chrysler Slant 6 Engine — Built for Boost & RPM
Did you know the factory cast main caps in a Chrysler Slant 6 typically start to fail around 300–350 HP (225–260 kW)? At this level the OEM caps can crack, walk, or lose alignment under load — especially with boost, nitrous, or high RPM use. If your build is aiming for this range or beyond, upgrading to billet main caps is cheap insurance to protect your investment.
When building serious horsepower into a Chrysler 225ci Slant 6 engine — especially with forced induction, strokers, or sustained high-RPM use — the factory cast main caps become a critical weak point. This billet 4-cap upgrade delivers the stability and alignment required to push your build further with confidence.
Manufactured by Milton Engine Developments, these billet main caps are precision CNC-machined in South Australia and zinc-coated for long-term protection, delivering reliability and performance trusted by race engine builders across Australia and beyond.
