He was able to pick up a used long block for $5,000 which isnt a bad price.
He will still do his own work, I wouldnt call head studs maintenence but nevertheless. I blame his dumb helpers he had, he was busy on other things and let them do the torque of the studs a such which is a lengthy and complicated process, first 45lb then 75lb then 95lb and then 125lb, let it sit then loosen and torque to 125 again, let it sit than torque to 125lb again then let it sit for 24 hours, and torque to 125 again. He himself isnt a bad mechanic. Just had some bad luck. |
