When was this UOA pulled??

Even if a rod bolt broke the collateral damage from that would have created wear metals that were elevated, even if it was sudden.

There are lots of caveats to oil analysis, I have learned these over the time we have been developing our oil, beginning in 2006. One of the most important parts of gaining accurate UOA results is to calibrate the gear with the use of a virgin oil sample from the oil thats being tested. We have no issues with this since our UOA goes back to the company that creates the oil for us.

Blackstone does not develop these engines.. They probably do not know exactly what a good, bad or horrible M96 sample really is. I do see some elevations in this sample from normal, but they are not horrible.

Blackstone has never impressed me.

Looking at that oil, based on some of it's properties it looks like Royal Purple, is that what you were running?
