paul no disrespect but how can you judge whats rebuilt properly ?
how many years of technical engine building do you have ?
they never wacked the boost right up, he adjusted it with the wanky pipe system
im not saying they done a good job but engine wear has fuck all to do with a rod leaving the block
a rod leaving a block is down to either bad bolts, not done the bolts up enough or him ragging the car,, now what was he doing when he threw a legg out of bed ?
as i know he wasnt doing 30 in 5th gear
and you lot BODGED a engine together than held on with luck,,,, giving simon the idea that engine building is easy and that erst's can last for ever and so he ragged the shite out of his car then blamed em when they went wrong
hes gearbox needs a rebuild due to oil leaking from the end plate and having no oil in it
hayden also fucked his scooby engine and how many driveshafts by donuting the car
now all the times i went in haydens rs van or his cab he ragged the car in first adn second then start of third but never drove them fast
thats why hes shocky engine died,,, the shonky build never helped i admit but it never just failed
