Curtis your correct .. not sure what these guys are seeing. ALL bearings look like brand new still. This was rod failure plain and simple.
There is a lot of BIG engine shops who bypass Oliver and suggest Callies Compstar, Eagle, Ohio Crankshaft just because the terrible luck with Oliver stuff. Brian the guy that suggested it sold you that carb
He builds motors for a lot of big hitters in the bracket world and has good luck without Eagle. To Each's Own I guess ... but I will contiune to not suggest Oliver....
