Nope! Those bearing caps are like the main caps on an engine block. They are not readily available and would require machine work to fit a different cap to an existing carrier casting.

RACE ON!!!

so if i am going to be pushing around 500whp would it be a good idea to just swap the new good internals into my old case that doesn't have a cracked cap?

I would. The housing and the main caps are married to each other for life. No reason at all that you could not swap the other internals.
