Thanks for posting those! I'm really ignorant about some things, and this helps me visualize.

Great work. Thanks a lot. I noticed some discoloration on the crank journal as well as on the big end of the rod. Are all the journals discolored like that ( blueing from excessive heat ) or just the one? Or it just an illusion from the camera.

Its been my experience that once a rod gets that hot to turn blue, it is weakened to a point that I would never trust it again. And about the only way they turn blue is lack of cooling oil. ( or some clown at a machine shop truing and resizing, and overheating them )

Thanks again for sharing the pics with us.
