Simon, my mate had one go in an engine and it ruined the whole thing. I know the PL set last ages and so i think it will last longer than the other bits of the engine, crank, conrod and wrist pin.
I checked the crank i had the last BRB set in and the pin is worn out. The wrist pin was also worn but the PL set was perfect.
Cheers
It is defenetly right. To put a new set ( regarless brand) will required farily good condition of the rest parts and if cranckshaft pin pretty worn out-will not help inlife and performance. My post was refering, that I have never got feedback that wirst pin is worn out quicker then piston. We use high alloy steel heat treated to 58 Rockwell and wrist pins last about 3-4 pistons before change them.
