I don't think the S65 has an exclusive on rod bearing wear with the high RPMs that it is capable of. Other engines also suffer from rod bearing wear if they're used at the extremes, not to mentioned with extended use oil at 10k OCIs = madness
Please show some examples of other high performance high RPM engines that show premature bearing wear.
