Let's see 'em. Who has the best bend connecting rod. We're looking for the most angle without breaking. Double points for double bends.

Here's my entry. (excuse the cell phone pic.)

On phone atm, but here in Australia, a 6 bent a rod in 2 directions :)
Will get photos when on computer next, it's mildly impressive...

So like the guy posted above that the motor was bone stock at 25k miles...how did the guy find out he had bent rods? Did the motor give way, or where there other symptoms prevalent that made him have the motor checked and found out that the rods were bent? That would suck on a stock car at 25k miles! I'd be super pissed!
