Lack of lubrication leads to a rod exiting the block!

Typical 'motor consumes oil...leads to low/no oil...spun rod bearing'.

Pics of the shortblock assembly replacing the borked one pictured above.

Customer had taken this project to another shop but time delay after time delay prompted the owner to take his business else where.

Can't tell if you're being serious, facetious, or naïve?
Either way, it isn't proper for one business to publicly bash another business.

Or like this.

But, as a tuner,you should know this.

I'm being totally serious. I know we haven't seen that car, so I was wondering who you're talking about.

BTW, at least I'm direct in my inquiries and statements that you linked to.

Thanks
