Well apparently, MD Cos has conclusive proof that they killed this fella's engine by running it on the rollers there!
He'll be posting it up soon and we are all going to be shocked at the terrible things that Jamsport did with the car!!!!!
Well either that or he is talking utter bollocks and just randomly trying to hint at things without a clue what he is on about, which IMHO is what will be the case, as my own dealings with Jamsport have always been favourable and I really dont believe they somehow jammed this poor cunt's oil relief valve open, so fuck knows why some twat is trying to imply they did

Seems to me from what he is saying is that he's pissed off due to his engine having troubles, the big ends have spun and he blames the rods.
God next thing it will be Jamsport make Jam

So you are a total idiot who doesnt know how to check the clearances on your big ends to make sure you have an appropriate amount of bearing squish, and now eagle rods are shit?
Or is it that you suffered an oil pressure problem because you didnt use a genuine pump? And as a result you killed the rods, just like you have done a cossie set, as the bearings ran dry.
Or is it that you left swarf in the engine when building it, and that jammed up a decent pump relief valve?
Im positive its you that is a cluelss idiot and are just blaming eagle rods cause you dont understand what really happened, im just not sure yet on which reason they actually failed.
The one thing I am utterly POSITIVE of though, is that it was NOT the rods that caused that failure, utterly no chance at all with how you have described it, its more likely that elvis vandalised it than that those rods themselves were at fault IMHO!

I was saying that is one possibility.
another is the use of a pattern oil pump, ive seen this failure happen on countless engines where people on a budget have used cheap parts. (or cosworth ones of course with the recent batch of dodgy pumps)
Was it jamsport who built and installed this engine then and initially started it (another failure that is common is people not properly priming the oil pump), or just their rollers it was run on?
What I was saying is that there are LOTS of possible valid guesses you could make at the reason for failure, but the rods are NOT to blame IMHO, thats literally the last thing I would be pointing the finger at for the described failure, just after I blamed the left rear indicator lens.

What bandwagon am I jumping on?
I read his post, I gave my opinion, no bandwagon involved, in fact I hadnt even read anyone else's reply before I made my initial post, I did that afterwards and then replied to those posts as I got to them.
Im not even vaguely the bandwagon jumping type, I just call things as I see them, and IMHO it is NOT the rods at fault here, so I fail to see why there is a thread slagging the rods off!

they built it i fitted it and it was a gen ford pump and there is no way it was jams fault BUT its still my opinion that they are cheap rods hence im not using them this time round jamie is putting coswoth ones in it, and i never said it was the rods fault i said a bearing spun and damaged the rods .
(why do I already know what answer im going to get to this wether you actually did or not

can we get over the fact now it wasn't the rod that caused the failure it was the genuine oil pump and due to what the rod did when oil pressure was lost that he is saying that the rods are not the best for the job and is no way blaming jamie it was just one of those freak things and the engine has been run in for 1500 miles before this happened on rollers so that everything should of been bed in nicely before the power was introduced

Who pissed chip off tonight
Back to the topic, I have not heard a bad thing abouyt eagle. They are cheap as they are for a popular engine and made in US as far as I know, the same as JE pistons.
What bearings did the engine have in it?

looks like i did but i dont give a shit, i said in my opinion obviously im not aloud to have one. i said they were pish because jamie said they are cheap made rods from china and didn't recommend i use them in the new build. and the bearings were copper lead ones

For what its worth, I personally wouldnt use them in an expensive engine either, hence ive got arrows in my engine, but they had NOTHING to do with whats happened here so I thought it was gay you implying they did.

Im not pissed off, just trying to inject a dose of reality into your random outburst about the rods.

you sir, are a fucking retard
so you're not implying that they caused the destruction of your engine, but you are saying that you hate them and will never use them again because somebody told you they were shit? all because you're having oil pump issues?
basically you're slagging them off for absolutely NO reason at all then?
