Reading about all of this, I am paying attention considering the engine I put together.
Its a little better than both of these, but still a stock block.
No warm and fuzzies here.
But both of these had many, many runs on a cast crank too. One stock, one China cast.
yeah it sucks to see these two threads!! i have an ia2 and a forged crank in a street car with the rev limiter set at 5500 and i still worry!!
