Default Possible motor problem...

Sup guys, I had my car taken to a shop to do a motor swap for me and when I got the car back last night, the motor sounds pretty funny. It sounds like the head has a serious valve problem, like it's loose or something. It sounds like valve clatter and a cross between a loud *** fuel injector.

Also, when he adjusted the valves he adjusted to: intake/0.008, exhaust/0.010. I don't know the exact specs for the b16a2 motor though. Last thing, when I boost up, the car pulls up to around 6000 rpms then from there on to redline, it slows down and runs like ****. I payed 1200.00 so I hope he didn't mess anything up. Oh yeah, does the engine coolant temp sensor cause the VTEC to go into limp mode? Cause I think I'm not getting VTec also. any help would be greatly appreciated!
