Michelle definitely gets the award for getting her money's worth on her original rod bearings. This is some heaviest wear we've encountered, but the car has been babied and cared for during her ownership from 50k miles. Even with track days, she takes care of oil services routinely and early. She had been keeping up with her Blackstone Oil samples during oil intervals since she purchased the car and none of them were ever alarming. Now that she resides on the east coast, we stayed on her to get the bearings taken care of and it's a good thing we did! This is the issue with relying entirely on BSL data. It can be a great way to keep track of metallic wear, but it is no means a guarantee. I am not bashing them by any means as we've caught bad internals many times thanks to BSL's data over the years and they are great to deal with. We'll continue to do so, we are just here to provide the service and information as we get it.

As usual - top to bottom are Cylinders 8 -1 respectively and left column is uppers and right is lowers.
