Main bearing cap. Where to buy?

I was tearing down my engine due to a cam failure and found a main bearing cap cracked completely in half. Nothing else is damaged that I could see. I think I got lucky and this could have been a lot worse. If my cam wouldn't of failed I would have never known that it had cracked until something more devastating would have happened to the engine.

Can you buy just one cap or do they come as a set? I have had a hard time finding a place to buy one.

The crank is fine. I was planning on doing a full rebuild/roller conversion since I had the engine apart anyway.

take it to a machine shop. The Assembly should be checked out, at the very least its going to need line honed and new main bearings. if your going roller, maybe look for another more modern roller block.
