    Is that radiator smaller than stock? Do you ever have issues with heat?

    Comment

                  How did you spin a rod bearing? Looked like your build was done correctly. Did your oil get diluted from running terribly rich for so long before getting it tuned right?

                    Well Im Not 100% Sure Its The Rod Bearings But It Did Have A Knock N Bottom End When Rmp's Went Over 3500-4000. I Changed The Oil A Few Times Within The Few Months She Wasnt Tuned Right. I Still Have To Tear It Down And See Whats Up. Ill Say I Miss Driving That Thing Tho!! haha
