So did you ever figure out what causd your #7 rod failure on your 2nd motor? Those were aftermarket rods and pistons with that stroker kit right?

Basically it ended up that quench was too tight, and there were a few times where I was in the top of 3rd and ended up in 2nd instead of 4th...from what I could tell I never went higher than 7K but who knows. I did this quite a few times trying to get the shifter figured out.
When it let go, it had been months since it happened. It's the only explanation my machinist could come up with. Rods were Scat I-Beams and pistons were Mahle. I'm running K1 H-Beams and Mahles in the latest build.
