Dropped Engine
I was picking up my engine that I had taken in to have freshened up for this years racing season and when the shop was wheeling it out to my truck the front bolt broke off and the end result was the engine fell 4-5- feet to the ground and hit the head pan and harmonic balancer.
The shop will do what ever it takes to make it right.
My problem is I have seen what happens when parts break loose.
This is a broken crank at a Pinks event.
If I keep the engine.
I want the shop to magna flux all the parts and the block and heads.
And reassemble the engine.
Is this asking to much?
I know there is a lot of shop that watch this board.
To me the engine is not reliable anymore.
Value of parts and machine work is about $9-10,000.
What I would like the shop to do is build and machine another engine and I would supply the parts.
Any idea's or comments are welcome.
