Ok gentelmen, my bearings well one rod and one main are eaten up. So I am going to do a rebuild (again) The motor is a 7bolt but currently has a stroker set up. I took the crank out and i had it polished...and is perfectly fine. it looks as though there wasnt enough oil getting down there. Any suggestions on how to make sure this doesnt happen again. I ported the oil relief port on the oil housing but i dont want to let the bearing wear occur this soon again (12k). I think my big mistake was running with high oil pressure and using federal mogul bearings (alluminum) so i am thinking if i go with acl trimetals and maybe plug the oil squirters then i should be fine. Any suggestions? Also i will be doccumenting the build for the forum!
