Yup, those are done! Thanks for the update
I'm quite surprised copper wasn't higher in the UOA given the amount showing in those shells. But that's really the whole thing with UOA's. Yours indicated that there may have been a bearing issue. There certainly was. The UOA didn't however indicate the severity of the issue just that there was a reason to investigate further.

Few guys at m3post.com worked with guys from Clevite and designed rod bearings with larger clearance for S65/S85 motors.

Interesting. Wonder if they'd ever make them for the S54 as well.
