I posted a few months ago about a shop i was dealing with that fucked my shit up bad. Well they admited they fucked up and tryed to charge me to fix it. I finally straightened my engine out at my work and this is what we found wrong with my 4,100 short block/head rebuild- burred over lifter bores (couldnt pound a lifter in if you tryed), completely wrong compression after spending 600 bucks on pistons they said would be right, all bearing clearances were disgustingly tight, wrong oil seals on heads (literally pop off when valve moved), reworked valves that are fucked and should have got tossed in the trashed, off center valve grind, shitty cast iron guides (garbage), piston to wall clearance way too tight and connecting rod housing bores that arent completely round. Luckily i never fired this engine or i would have been in a world of hurt. Everything they did on my engine was piss poor or completely wrong. The guy that owns this place basically told me he wouldnt do anything without charging me for the repairs. In the end i have an extremely nice engine built by myself and the guys at Gellber Engineering (my work) but it cost way to much in the end because Weber racing is a bunch of hacks. So beware of these assholes ----->Weber Racing Equipment in North Ridgeville,Ohio. If your ever looking into building an engine do the research because all machine shops are not the same at all!! Hope this saves someone from a serious ass ache.
