Just to confirm the above cars engine did very well up until this point
After racing 2 full seasons over 2 years
Not bad to say it was on standard rods due to budget. Putting up a pic with no explanation on this thread about engines not being built properly implies we built an engine that failed prematurely this was not the case.
These things happen in real world race cars that are being driven hard most weekends on a budget.

Please don't think I was implying you don't build good engines, thats not what was intended. I merely posted the pic to show it can and does happen, even to top tuners like yourselves.

The difference is that those limits are far higher for pros/track cars, and of course way above anything experienced in day-to-day driving (either car or owner).
Lower the professionalism of the build and you bring the breaking limits MUCH closer to daily life.
