Anyone do a Blackstone report after doing their rod bearings?

That might be interesting to see and monitor.

Agree, I'd like to see some results post change.

How long after your bearings were changed out was this report done? How long did you run that oil (doesn't say on the report)? I would expect elevated particulate counts on the first analysis after the bearing job.

This was the second oil change after bearing replacement. Roughly 6k miles on this sample.
