They over revved that motor, he stayed into it a bit to long.

I read on another site a comment from the owner that a rod bolt broke at 6500 rpm. Was hitting 24 lbs of boost on a stock bottom end and found the weak links.

It doesn't look like an over rev. Appears to be just way too much hp and boost for a stock bottom end.

That makes sense. The explanation, not the fact that they left the bottom end stock with 24psi boost and over 800rwhp
