I had a 3.6 motor with ARP bolts let go while racing shifting from 4th to 5th motor was new with Wossner 11.5 pistons everything done. So after talking to some engine builders that first thought was piston failure Alan at Asse motors told me about Glyco rod bearings DON"T USE THEM!!! spend the money for clevitte! Glyco is OK for others but not for Rods I also had a clearance grind put on the crank this allow's for more oil film on the rod bearing seems with high compression the oil film is pushed out causing seizure of the rod . Were you using Race fuel if not that's to much compression for single plug you should not have drove it. The stress you put on it probably helped cause this.
