DP #24 Engine failure....

I keep seeing coments about Scat rods. There is nothing wrong with them. I have used them for years, they came with ARP 2000 bolts. Never had to re-size one or correct the balance on a new one right out of the box. Never one single failure. Machining has always been dead nuts. I can't say that for Eagle and some others. Putting Manley rods in that one sure isn't going to cure anything. Valve to piston contact had nothing to do with that failure, nor did the rods.
