Well Im in Virginia for work, But I got a friend back home to tear my motor down for me and it was a rod bearing. So I guess I'll break it in a little easier this time around? Im hoping to be in wellsville with it Labor day weekend, But figured id let you guys know you were right about it. |

All I run is a full flow system on my buggy and Ive never had a oiling problem. The only thing I do is run a windage tray to help hold the oil around the sump. |

Thats right chris the 30mm pump sucks the sump dry dry under high rpm and foams the oil really bad. The 26 or 28 solves that whole problem. |
