wanted to know if anyone has had problems with rod bearing failure on there cars . or a problem with resizing rods and getting them to repeat size after resizing.
i had my motor done 2 times buy a supposed competent machine shop . first time aprox. 700 miles and # 3 rod bearing is wiped out completly and motor knocking loud as hell, guy takes motor and reassembles again and resizes again cleans everything out new bearings etc. turns crank . under 300 miles # 6 rod bearing goes out obvios this guy does not know what the f#@k he is doing. tells me tough s#@T it is a race motor . no warranty after i told him i had someone else take it apart to give me there opinion . # 6 is down well into the copper and naturally has damaged all other bearings as well as ruined crank.also after telling him i would get a lawyer and file a complaint with BBB AND CONSUMER AFFAIRS .HE HAS A DEPUTY GIVE ME A TRESSPASS WARNING SO I CAN NOT COME BACK AND COMPLAIN. WHAT A SCUM BAG.
well had to vent a little. but has there been any problems with resizing the rods. also i am using arp bolts . and wondered if it was a problem with these
thanks for any input
