It isn't,its off the road now for the rebuild.I managed to get a huge 1600 miles out of it before the $12.000 motor requires a rebuild.instead of sniping at me over something you know nothing about why not do something positive and buy it?
Melting the fuse box or wiring or whatever it was you did because you didn't have the common sense to see that putting a hot turbo next ti it was going to cause that to happen hardly qualifies you to pass judgement on me or anybody else for that matter.

I've seen it in action, smokes and pops out dipstick irrespective of catch/can venting setup.
It's pretty clear to me in my unbiased opinion corners have been cut, very poor. It's a sick engine that the op is having some fun with because it's been such a long build and might as well.
Kings have been going for a while and have some success stories this certainly isn't one of them, unfortunately it's a case of other side of the pond # wash hands.

Mr Pitts now your engine is being built by someone you trust over here in the uk, is he giving you any guarantees that everything is going to be spot on? Like if it goes bang on the dyno
Is he going to be putting his hands in his pocket?

I completely trust Gary so I won't have any worries.He knows the situation plus what power goal Im after and all the components are brand new.Its just a case of somebody who knows what they are doing with no financial restraints doing the job properly.I don't care what the labour costs are because of the hassel and shite in the past with dodgy engine builders I want it done right.....how ever much it costs.
Guarantee,I'm not sure but cannot see Gary turning his back if things go wrong.In the grand scheme of things the engine is only a small part of the overall cost.

I'm sure Garry is a great guy. I only ask because I have never had an engine built or even had a car on the dyno so I was just wondering in general if the garages that offer this work
also give guarantees? But I'm kinda getting the feeling that isn't the case and as a owner you also need to know things could go tits up? Lots of people don't think about this, I know I didn't
anyway.
