Yeah, it is #7 rod bearing that is spun, you can see on the rod cap that it is blackened from the heat. I spoke to the guys from Lingenfelter, the rod and piston ARE shelf parts, so I can get those replaced pretty easily. I have the motor at WestSide Performance here in Houston. Jeff the owner is gonna check it out for me inn the next couple of weeks. He is pretty backed up... That's a good thing I guess. That many people go to him..
As for what went through the motor to do the damage on the #7 piston. I'm a little dumb founded cause I have twin intercoolers that would have cought anythinng that would have gone through the intake piping. I'm thinking the piston damage was done before the turbos were put on...

Is it just me or do the valve reliefs look strange? I don't mean the fact that they should be on top. They look like they were cut wrong, too.
