Message	See my post. I double check all the torque values on the rod, main, and head studs. No way I missed it on 2 separate passes. Not to mention the fact that it has survived for 15,000 miles and at least 2 dyno/tuning sessions. If is was loose it would have been knocking on the E85 tuning session. Especially with someone using headphones for tuning. It wasn't loose for 4 years and 15K miles and then decide to back off in a run or two.
