^ exactly... and tough to make adjustments at the track given placement of the tensioner/fastener
So, here are the pics
Some scoring along the cylinders
Two deep gauges where the bearing spun and dug into the lower block
Visible damage to crank
Easier to see in person... Tool marks on the heads indicating that they may have been tightened to a non-OEM level of torque... note that this could have happened when the engine was installed as a "new engine" by a dealership in Phoenix, or anytime thereafter... it would not be appropriate for anyone to further speculate... thanks! I am providing these photos simply as a reminder that according to Nissan these should not be adjusted outside the factory... which is open for discussion
