Good luck Dan. Looking forward to seeing your writeups on install, also curious to see what you find on the old motor.

Clay probably won't be very happy if the engine comes back to him in pieces.

Well I'm not saying tear it down, but I know any mechanic would want to see, with their own eyes, exactly what the problem is.

I was just kidding and not giving you a hard time. It would be nice to swap out the injectors for some that were bad.

They are extremely picky about getting back every single piece exactly like it came on the new engine. I would like to get my $1500 back, LOL.
