On the telemetry my JP 35+ did reach just over 46.000 rpm. Manufacturers are saying 2.7hp in the specs but I believe on a dyno it is about 2hp max.
Sorry, not sure if you got what I meant.
Instead of changing to a new rod, I changed to a brand new crank I had sitting around. It took the play away from in the crank. Should I also change the rod?
