Forged Pistons and ballanced in the first 2.5L... I ended up cracking a Cylindar sleeve.. There is a small steel liner glued and pressed into the alumn block which is what cracked. I'm not sure what really happened.. I was at the drags when it blew but I was not really beating on it as I didn't need to to win my races.. I had an issure with an oil line blowing a month or so prior and I think it was just a combination of the oil stravation and stress..
