| Strange, I didn't hear anything about this today (maybe out of fear of me being angry, which I am). The strange thing is I personally saw them turning the engine over and personally told them to double check this particular front clip. The rust is actually a common occurance considering they pressure wash the engine in Japan. We actually are able to start the car in Japan and are assured of the quality by our partners. We are one of the few companies that owns our suppliers and therefore we USUALLY have some of the highest quality product. I would normally tell you not to jump to conclusions about the valves being bent, but the symptoms seem to conclude that. Unfortunatly I believe this is the only Z clip we have ever had with an engine issue, so maybe it's true what you were saying about your luck. I will try to get my hands on the next engine that is being shipped and give it my personal look-over, but my time has been limited recently. I will at the very least speak with the warehouse manager and make sure you won't receive another bad engine. If you do need to get ahold of me, email would be easier then trying to reach me by phone.
