Adding insult to injury
Yesterday I went by the dealer to check on the progress of my engine rebuild and the Service Manager comes out and greats me...hey, we got some bad news...a your exhaust system was next to your car...a and...a one of the guys..a kind of hit it with a tire and... it kind of scratched your door. :mad :mad but we can fix it, our body guy is great.
3 scratches 3-4" long. WTF is all I can say!
waiting on rod & head bolts.

Make them do it 100% before you pick it up. Easier to get it done now rather than after you take. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:
