I've decided to do some videos for my 2015 Paxton GT as well as the '86 foxbody swap that I'm about to start. Below is a short video of my S550 before and after death. Hope you guys like it! :headbang:

I just went through a rebirth myself with OPG failure, spun 2 rod bearing. What was your crank main bearing failure from?

The end result was "oil starvation", however, OPG was intact. The machine shop said that in some cars the pressure on the top of the piston will push the oil out of the sides of the rods and cause the bearing to stick to the crank and rotate. #5 Rod bearing spun and grooved the crank a little. Only one main spun a little, but nothing like the rod bearing. Lots of signs indicating oil starvation on the crank though. I still have the block from that engine along with some other parts. I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. I might throw a built short block together with it and save it for a rainy day.

I'm glad you got your car back up man! I really felt for you because I remember going through that and I was depressed as hell just looking at it just sitting in my driveway.
