pics of my new project, which when done should run in the 9sec. zone in the 1/4 mile. And did i say this will be street driven... The motor in the car is just a dummy motor being used the do all the mark up necessary till the real beast goes in it.

Ive seen dozens of 5s-fe throw a rod for no reason, on a well maintained car, being driven normally, with plenty of oil. Just curious. Not trying to criticize you. |

Not trying to criticize you. that would be because the 5s, and the 7a for that matter are known for having weak rod bolts.throwing a rod thru the block says nothing about the blocks intergrity. a little research on mr2oc will net quite a few reasons people use the 5s block, besides the .2 liters that you gain with it.
