any one going to nitro challege or silver states
will g this is MHO...i would remove the rear bearing and give it a good inspection, if the bearing is still nice and smooth, showing no to very little wear and has no graineness what so ever...i would continue to run the bearing for 1.5 ro 2 more gallons and then repeat inspection...as for the connecting rod...i would replace it somewhere around the 3 to 4 gallon mark...
