spun bearing
Hey guys. haven't been here for awhile but i recently rebuilt my 355 and it ran great. the only differance this time was the rods crank and cam. I just upgraded to summit stage one from stock and i put a bigger cam in. My problem is after only about 5 or so hours of running after the break in it spun a rod bearing. Now it would run around 75 psi of oil pressure at idle. A friend of mine that is a big motor head said that is way to much and starving the bottom end. Makes sence to me but how could i fix this for the next rebuild. I thought of restictors but they all say not to run with hydrolic liffters.joe bogger
