After the engine was built I said now ffs stop doing your head in and finish the car, but no. You have to learn to trust dude. Tony buzzes his own small block at 10,000rpm. How may dyno pulls have you seen Paolo do? That thing lives on the rollers! You have a nicely built motor that plenty would happily take off your hands. Fit it and fire it up 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genuine honest person Member 2,769 Member For: 10y 10m 24d Gender: Male Location: near brisbane Posted 09/02/16 07:27 AM Author Share Posted 09/02/16 07:27 AM Had a talk to tony this morning and sorted some of my concerns out with him .I will say that I have done the wrong thing by not phoning him and asking him why there was no grey or black engine asembely lube on the cam shafts or rockers. Yes I should not have said nothing as there is nothing wrong with what he has done to the engine .well I have to say that I was wrong and that I apologize to Tbre .ps last post did not all go through? I will say more later . The front cover and sump got waterblasted which does not remove stubborn stains . He also said that they were not the best when he got them back from the blasters . I ended up painting them on the car as they were not nice to look at . Before I taken the engine to him some of you guys on the forum warned him about me , but he felt sorry about what had happened to me . Now he regrets ever dealing with me . The reason the rocker cover never got fitted with 10 na fittings and powdercoated was that there was a miss under standing .I should have taken it with me and got it done and send it back to him as apparently I said I was getting it done my self . So sorry Tony as I was wrong .I never said that it was not build to your standards ,or that it was going to fail .my concern was only on start up and that I had to take the rocker cover off at my garage which is not dust prove . To everyone on here , tony is a great engine builder or I would have never taken it there in the first place as I realised it pays to use the best .I have also realised that no nater what I get done I have to right a list and keep a copy of what I want done so there is no confusion on anything . That will also help if somthing is not done how I asked it to be done . Tony also explaint that it will be very hard for me to find any one that is interested to tune or work on my car from now on ,which I can understand as my track record is not the best as he had a lot of phone calls and messages about me . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
