this is the story i just traded my built mustang for a rare gold ls1 camaro z28 the story is he changed the clutch to a stage 2 heavy duty clutch and he took it down the street and he said he seen his oil presure gauge go from 60 psi to 20 psi so he turned off the motor right away he tore the motor apart he found out witch it really is the crank bearing the number 1 went out he pushed the car home soon as he found out about the psi . is it true that i would hae to get the pistons and rod reconditioned and what caused the motor to blow the crank bearings. all i know is that it has a thunder racing t- rex cam and a brand new mellin oil pump and thats about it what are the chances of me having to recondition the pistons also what might of caused this
