Recently built. Carson girdle, cryod forged rods.

This thing is running like its got a bent rod. White smoking bad, knocking, dead miss with small acceleration and a 100 psi disparity between high/low cylinder compression. Add to that the lpoil is going to 0 at the reservoir and oil cooler.

My advice is to take it apart before it trashes the block and possibly other expensive after market parts.

bearings just dont fail for no reason, something caused it
