My GVR4's engine...

Well, I finally took my 2.3 out of my car, looks like my rod is screwed, where is a good place to get my rod re-sized?

Look the the THRUST BEARING?!?!?! it has worn all the way through!!!

as far as I can tell, the only damage was to the thrust bearing and to rod #3

I don't know what caused the failure....anyone know how to track down what happened? Had 5 qts in there, no leaks (so beautiful, a dry engine)

stock timing tables (yeah, i know) , 10 lbs of boost...one good launch..SC61 chipped for the 780's

i basically blame this on the lack of tuning/not running synthetic oil

Thoughts?
