Default Tbone's Dart build TEARDOWN. pics inside

I just tore down my motor for a refresh.
Here's my bearings after 412 dyno pulls ,14,000 miles,20 passes at the track.
7 cam changes on the dyno.. You will see some debris in the oil from this, it was apparent by some of the shiny scores on the bearings. these are all surface however and you cant feel them except for on e of them slightly..
..


I'm speechless on how awesome this motor is.. This thing could go another 14 as it sits..

ATI BALANCER INSIDE..
if you dont own one , go buy one!!!!!!!!

The piston coating did its job as well... you can see where the skirts are coated..

Leak down was 3-4% cold and the cr burried my gauge at 300.

Thanks Tom. Careful assembly, by you, has everything to do with it too.

If you get a chance, could you post a pic of the block main saddle area?
