    My brother did his own splaying job on his 2 bolt block. I am not sure what he paid for the kit I will look that up and post it here. That would be a safe route to travel for sure, the kit does claim they are stronger then a stock 4 bolt cap.. 90.00 a set but they need machined after install, but you are gonna have the block there anyway. here is eagles quote,

    Bulletproof your engine's bottom-end with Eagle Specialties.
    These Eagle billet steel main caps offer superb strength at a reasonable cost. Eagle main bearing caps improve performance and reliability by eliminating main cap walk and reducing main bearing bore distortion. These main caps are designed to fit Chevy 2-bolt blocks with machine work. Eagle main caps include a drill bushing, 6 bolts, and 3 main caps. Please note--the engine block must be drilled for 4-bolt conversion and line bored after main cap installation.
