When it's time it's time. Bent rod. Just abuse of a part that was never designed to take that much power. Goes to show with a good tune just how far the ls stuff can go. Is that heat blueing on the rod just above big end. Or just the angle of pic?
Also if you measured the depth in the cylinder you could figure out what your final compression was.

Frost is one of the few I would trust to tune my own stuff if I didn't.
