Well, if he blew 2 h/g before on those rods, it could of been that enough coolant went into the combustion chamber and "bent" the rods.

yeh that could be done ,, but its kinda odd to blow on every cynlinder like that

I have seen this happen to one or two rods from a headgasket but they were much worst!

 

the thing that kills me is i have made 400whp on stock rods before back in 2003 with arp bolts !!. i cant see how any brand aftermaket would be weaker then stock!

I have but it was worse than that. The fuel pressure regulator fitting broke on the intake manifold and the car leaned out just a little causing a rod to snap and the rest to bend

did it have a spun bearing on the one that broke?.. and it melt pistons or anything to?

 

i wonder if some kind of fluid got into the cylinders like the coolant

 

bump for any more hardcore info

 

all these shops on here no one has had this happen!!???
