Re: Steel rod life expectancy
Every aluminum rod failure I had pulled into in the middle. Big eng spun freely on the crank, with a good bearing inside. All big end failures I have seen were bearing failures. If it's black, it sure wasn't the rod.
When you set your bearing clearances, think about the expansion rates.
