I would think it would have more to do with the 2.0 cam gears then the DOHC head. In the end the numbers do not mean much, as long as the cams are doing what they should be doing.

Well a few days ago I started to hear ticking coming from my motor. Sounded like a lifter tick but gradually got worse. Pulled the valve cover and ran and the noise was not louder with the valve cover off and I knew there was a serious problem. Drained my oil and found gold shavings!

Now I pulled my oil pan and found the bushing from number one hanging out of the connecting rod. Now im like WTF! with only 7500 on this motor.

After I found that out, I removed the head to find the wrist pin actually snapped in half and was chewing up the bushing on the connecting rod. Then looking back at this thread, realised this is the same wrist pin that was too tight!

What im doing now is still in the air, this should not have happened.

I remember having some problems with my Weisco's as well. I think I had Gosh rebush them if I'm not mistaken. That really sucks, quality control is definitely lacking.

[blackrosenova400]

Well a Wiseco represenative states at my wicked 500hp level HD's are required. I bet the stockers would be still holding

[turbotalon1g]

Poor guy.

[blackrosenova400]

He did offer me a discount to cope with the situation. If I do and when I do, I will have to check over there tolerances, which is kinda sad one would have to.

A lot of guys were finding cracked Wiseco pistons too a few years ago, it was all over that other board. The pistons were still working fine, but when a couple guys found theirs cracked in 1 specific spot a few other checked theirs and found it happening too.

I also remember that my Eagles were off ever so slightly on the big end as well.
