I will let you know as soon as I get word--it's either #3 or #4 from the looks of it. My GUESS is #3, but what the heck do I know!
I will edit with the final result!
Take care,
Mike

Mike Velasco and I went to town on the oil drainback holes. Just about doubled the size of the return holes. There are three of them in the front of the block. Don't think pumping oil to the head is gonna be an issue.

This poll is to obtain objective info to "maybe" put together a picture for a posible issue. Please just post the rod # that has failed.
