Yea she was pretty dirty,definetly needed a bath,didn't have any oil leaks though and had 109,000 on it I was very impressed the stock piston can take so much abuse, I now believe a 200 shot frequently would not be a problem on them, with the right tune of course Ya i have to agree the bearing was shot and the rest of the journals had some scoring on them also,defiently was ran on low oil
