I don't think it's a normal rod issue. I can't say for sure since I don't know 3S motors, but DSM rods have been proven to easily handle 125whp per hole with careful tuning. I can't imagine Mitsu went way cheaper on the rods in the 3s', so just by those numbers, 750whp shouldn't be out of the question for stock rods. Did you have the rods magnafluxed? I'm thinking there might have been an imperfection in that one rod. I guess only disassembly will tell.

That is where we are at. We had the rods cryo'd, not magnafluxed. Since I don't want to deal with this mess again I am going forged.
