As far as the tune, that will perhaps never be known. The dyno operator/ tuner at Jack's place of work tragically died last week in a Jetski vs boat accident.

Chris was the tuner/ dyno operator at EFI Logics as well as part owner of the shop.
I believe Jack said 7 or 8 laps into the event. He used to run Valvoline 20w-50 racing oil, not sure if that is still the case. |
That's terrible news
Obviously with so many variables and unknowns in the engine it's hard to pin point the exact cause of the bearing failure. Tony will be testing the oiling to 8000+ rpm and I'm expecting to see oil starvation to the big ends up there above a certain RPM with the stock pump. Time will tell.
You don't know fuel he was running by chance?
