You know Cory I spun my Engine to 7,200 for over five years and it never came apart. No way yours could have lost a rod bolt

I lost a thrust bearing...A FREAKING THRUST BEARING! WHo loses a thrust bearing on a automatic? I'll tell you, someone who had a poor machine shop!
It's like everything else in life, fall...get up and not just try again...get a bigger F-ing motor and try again!
