but i got another one comming for free

 

another

 

final

 

.

 

ouch, what were you doing!!!

 

nothing thats the way i got the motor. i was in the process of banging out the oil pan getting ready to drop in the sr and i found a valve shim in the pan. so i took off the valve cover and found this mess. i orderd the sr off of streetimports so if any of u guys are thinking of buying from them becarfull

 

yeah well, in selling motors i see it as someone has a contact in japan, they send over a few sr's they go to either venus auto, motorex, or any other places... and iam pretty much thinking the only inspections these engines go through is compression , oil pan, and any missing parts, i doubt that they check internals for anything... so i mean it could be any business that sells crap motors, untill you see these places actuall INSPECTING motors, its anyones bad luck reguardless what company...sucks though hope everything turns out ok...

 

btw did you get any kind of warranty for this motor??

 

yes they gave me a 30 day warrentee with the motor. so i called them and sent them pics right after i found this and they have sent me out another long block that i will get on tuesday they said. so im a way i kinda lucked out because now i got a top end i can send to ss to get rebuilt with what i want without downtime. and i do not have to send the other motor back or anything.
