Hey Al, I haven't spoken to you. Finally got down the track once. Popped a rod cap off and beat up two bores as well as trashed a crank. Well... after investigation we found a oil system problem in my new aluminum block (sound familiar?) Turned out there is a feature off location which connected the intake and exit of the oil pump. Once it got rpm on it she starved for oil. Still working it out with the block manuf so I'll keep names out of it for now.
