All 8 forged TRW pistons were in great shape. Combustion chambers look fine.

4 of the 8 top rings were fractured in half. Second rings were all fine.

Front rod bearings were excellent. The 2 rod bearing was solid copper, and number 6 was spun with only the steel backing support present. The 3-7 and 4-8 rod bearings were solidly copper as well.

All the main bearings were solidly copper. Since everything originally bolted up so well, and spun so effortlessly, I was certain that the bearings would hold up better. Guess 375-400 HP is a high load on those bearings.

Any suggestions on what I should do for replacement bearings would be appreciated.
