> Lil’ Nasty Pete, I had no idea this happened. Anyway, good luck with the build. Have my guy do the engine, best in the area, period. And IMO the ‘tune’ caused the problem. Don’t know who tuned it last, don’t care, my opinion won’t change.

i can blame whoever, however the person paying is me and the damage is done lol. my friend Raif is assembling the motor. all the motors that he assembled that are in evos/dsm’s hold up well and the only failure he had was a howard rod wrapping around the crank. no assembly error, rod issue.
