Got the S1 kit btw. Still waiting for my built motor to get back from the machine shop then ill be installing this.
For those pushing the limits... Remember, a lot more can go wrong than just a bent rod. My piston disintegrated and took out the crank, block, oil pump, head and now I have metal shavings in my oil lines and cooler. Ended up costing me a lot more than if I had just built it when it was still in one piece.

That is very true, pushing the limits almost anything can happen.
One reason I am curious if phunk cracks open is block this winter and see what is stressed, any unusual wear that has occurred.
It is great to see people able to push these blocks as far as they can, especially 4 years ago when the first SC/TT kits were put on and people were at 500whp and everyone thought that might be the limit.
