Blake,
Sorry to hear about more motor woes. Souds like this goes under "shit happens" and hopefully your builder/tuner can get it right soon. Have a few beers/glasses of wine/glasses of single malt, whichever you like (or all of the above) and sleep on it. You've come to far to set it on fire now. If it helps I have a car lot full of trucks that get 10 mpg with gas @3.00 that won't sell. You can come set some of these bastards on fire if you like.

Machinework?....
Thats a hard all brother, you would basically have to prove the f'd up the machining I would think,If the machinist put it together then you have something.

He put it together as a shortblock. they did the rest. It went back to thye machinist....they have to pay SOME of the machinework cuz they blew the fugger up in the first place. I just should pay whatever I UPGRADED.
There ya go bro! Your stepping stone so to speak! YOU didnt put it together, YOU didnt blow it up! THEY should be responsibel. Same deal as mine, I agreed to pay for all I upgraded, but nothing else! You blow my crap up , YOU fix it! It came to you in a certain condition I expect it to leave in the same condition.
