Just thought id add this engine has been running over 600 bhp for god knows how long and it may of been mapped in japan. It made 589bhp at the back wheels the morning it lost a piston.

soz to hear that pal 
mine had failed because someone had put a jun oil pump in it and not extended the sump or even uprated the baffle 
thats 2 just bought big power gtrs ive heard of failing in the last 2 days

I reckon it will cost a couple of grand in parts for better stronger spec as i will be building it myself. Oh well its just a piece of metal it will fix.

trust sump extension and baffle kit. whole job is about £400 for the parts and welding.
adds 1.5 litres capacity of oil and a better baffle to help prevent oil starvation, the biggest killer of rbs so im told.
i would defo get a greedy/jun oil pump aswell if it hasnt already.

after seeing how bad my crank was im amazed it held 2 bar hot idle oil pressure im certain a standard pump wouldnt off. it was proper fooked mate not grindable well past it so thats proof for me how good these uprated pumps are, my turbos seem good might of been a different story with standard pump.
i remember posting on here reosonable oil pressure, no smoke and just a faint noise and that was with a fubared crank !
