excessive? it's ludicrous... you could count ALL the team Orion engines distributed in America that had a problem with a rod on one hand, and he has 3 of them, so that means over half of all the Team Orion engines that had rod issues belong to Jewn Beef's friends. Also, if they are all sponsored, they should of course come forward. Please have them email me because if they are team guys I'm sure I know them..

On another note, there are a few things that can destroy a rod. On of them is stripped spur gear, or loose engine, then grab the trigger. No rod can survive that... another is full noodle when the car is upside down..

You have to understand this same rod configuration has been used for generations in Sirio all the way from Kanai 1 thru 3, Werks, Extech, etc... just implying that there is some sort of problem is not logical..
