Only grinded all the bearing to dust in my last rebuild. Possible due to major oil leak or used grease to assemble the cam shafts.

Ive blown my civic (rod through the block), blown my ford escort (burn the valves) , blown 2 corollas (1 in fire, 1 i dont know), I blew my kx 125 2 times( broken piston skirt, broken ring) , my dt 200r 3 times (broken piston, crank bearings&crank, nother piston), my yz 250 once (fried rings, exhaust side) , my citation 250 snowmobile once (oil starvation, oil pump cable broke) my bombardier olympic 340, just exploded, holes in pistons of my yamaha enticer 340.

Countless lawnmovers and whippers.

Keep in mind, most of those were beaters, including the snowmobiles. (the bikes were good bikes, they just kept shitting)

And i kept most of those above normal rpms.

Never blew my Celica
Never blew my good snowmobile( Yamaha SRX 700)
