Have you got some wood near you to touch?

Loads are mate, I'm running just shy of 300 and my rods were fine, I still changed them for peace of mind. I'd hate to spend all that cash on mods for the engine to blow.
Although like I say there are plenty out there with OEM rods that are fine, it's a lottery
all this talk makes me worry, i wont be going stage 2 anytime soon but it is mapped, i want to fit a down pipe and decat and have bill map it for me but all this make me scared to drive lol
I'd want to know what caused the failure, Can't just assume it was the rods.
Maybe a ring snagged and caused a jam, Bad oil pressure or fuel pressure? Not saying they can cause such a failure but the cause needs to be found.
Would be best to find the cause in case the same thing happens to new block.
