Race car mystery-Help us solve PLEASE

Yes leakdown test was fine . We pulled heads and did a old fashion rod and piston check took a wooded hammer head put each pistion at tdc push down to see how much up and downplay we had . Set a dial indicator on zero at each pistion to see clearence found wound up being a bad bearing right before it would go where a rod bearing will only knock under a load if it fires car ran great but would not go over 6000 rpm st any shift

I can't see that making it past a leak down test.

I only ask as he did, and it was good.


EDIT:
Sorry that sounded a bit snooty.:protest: Was just asking if something like that had past a leak down test.:D
