over again --I would not trust any local machine shop or non-forum sponsor with any minor to major motor rebuild. I have a minor rebuild that has been nothing but a nightmare. I have decided to totally scrap my project and buy a long block built to the specs that I want from Z1. I plan to call them on Monday...this is cheaper than having them fix my motor an get my car transported to Ga... unfortunately my motor any wiseco pistons are of no value to me anymore ..actually i'd sell it to you if you like.... after being without my car since last july ....there is some value in having two motors ...
