Besides the upgraded main bearings/rod rod bearings the upgraded main hardware will stop the chance of the main bearing housing distorting allowing the bearing to rotate out of the housing and spin the way it did.
"atleast thats what I was told"

Running lower compression etc should help take stress off the engine as well, lighter parts, crank with better clearances for the rod bearings. Also did ceramic coating on domes and teflon sideskirts to help with temps some.

Will see if this prevents anymore issues, hope so. Engine looks like shipping out today to my shop, should have her back on road in couple weeks.
