First Oil Analysis after Rod Bearing Replacement.

I had to do an oil analysis a little earlier than I wanted (had to pull the oil pan after a valve shim dropped in it ).
This is the first oil change and analysis since the bearing replacement. Now I have a baseline to compare to for the future.

Miles on oil: 3725
Nine (9) track days
Oil used: Redline 15W50
