Help. The shop that handled most of my 7M-GTE conversion started my car for the first time today. Unfortunately, oil was not getting to the head and the engine seized as the engine was running for the third time. They were trying to diagnose a pegged oil pressure guage and dead tach. No, they didn't bother to remove the oil cap and look inside before starting it, again, and again.
Don't know where the problem was yet, but they or the machine shop will be eating the bill. I had the engine rebuilt already with .20 overbore JE pistons and rings, HKS MHG, new valves and springs,...
What parts do I demand that they replace with new? Up to and including the entire effin short block. Turbo damage?
Thanks for any expert advice. I don't want to get screwed by a half-ass redo.
