Drag Pak #24 Engine Failure CONCLUSION

After a LOT of discussion and a lot of back and forth.

The Rod bolts suck...simple.

We had thought we had seen an oil pressure drop, with the bolts stretching that would have caused it.

My suggestion ? The ARP 8740 that are supplied with the Scat Rods are listed for STREET duty.

Buy something better like and L19 Anything has to be better.

The stretch in these when all removed was quite unreal .030 in some cases .... really....

Bolts progressivley stretched and broke.

Simple, painful but simple.
