with only 9 passes on a professional rebuild-only a polish & w/checked for cracks-the # 3 rod journal broke out of the crank [completely]on a short 6000 rpm burn out-this WAS a 514 svo crank.just wondering what would have caused this to happen-is it a common problem ? this engine was in a rear engine dragster,shifted at 6650 rpm and had been running without any problems--the rods were still attatched and turn freely rods were still full length.any thoughts.
