It also gets complicated if he provided any parts, or bought the motor elsewhere. If the shop sourced everything, and put together and installed the motor, they should fix the mistakes. If you purchased the motor, then installed it elsewhere, and put other used parts in it, your probably SOL unless it turns out to be some gross error situation.

Which is why if warranty/etc is important, you talk to shop up front about it, and purchase all parts/service through them. I've had this same thing happen to me before. Brand new motor came apart at 480 miles. It sucks but it is part of modding a car.
There is a reason packages with warranties charge 2x as much as those without. You are basically prepaying for a failure. If nothing fails shop makes a ton of money. If something does, you have already paid for redoing everything.
