the reason mine ate a piston and spun the bearing was because of detonation on that cylinder. i put a cam that this truck wasn’t tuned for in it and thought it was close enough in specs to run. Live and learn. i’m not too upset about it, it just means faster truck and me getting rid of that tick it had since I bought it 🤘🏻
