Sorry to hear about the bad news. Sucks that it didnt quite hold up like the stock bottom end on your DSM.

What can you expect from a 7 bolt motor making 400+awhp? I knew it wouldn't last like my old 6 bolt did. I was just wanted it to make it through the year.

I don't think it's a broken rod since all the pistons move up and down like they are suppose to and the block is still in one piece.
