Block lasted 8 times down the track and blew up.......not even 8 full passes. I spoke to Chris At cnc and he agreed to sleeve another motor and we part our ways......I have emailed and called for the last 4 mos.......NOTHING!

Not saying it wasn't a build issue, but why tune a block with 65 psi of oil pressure and then run it at the track? Obviously something was wrong so why wouldn't you notice that to begin with?

back to my question for a reputable build shop should be atleast testing engines to ensure there work, and provide data spred sheets to prove there work wouldnt they???

i mean with the amount of cash we spend having these things built why wouldnt they be doing this to cover there own asses

Talked to JJsMotorsport and trying to figure and straighten everything out myself. This block was built before my time and back in the Howard days so I didn't personally have anything to do with it but its killing me to see the company I work my *** off for get bashed. I apologize for what happened and we'll get this fixed.
