I will not call out any names, as it is not a nice thing to do. lol. Folks, if you want things done right, take it to a professional shop or someone that knows what they are doing. You will save alot of money in the end. Block is trash, the head might be ok.The pictures will explain what i ran into as i only wanted to take the head out, straight edge it and the block and change the head gasket.


the block is trashed. all threads for the head bolts are stripped to hell.





The head. Why are the dowel pins splitted in half? beats the hell out of me. thats not even the right dowel pins for it! also, the oil hole wasnt tapped. it was welded and shaved off with something i dont even know. no wonder its leaking.





Guess what head bolts was used on this build? LS head bolts. this doesnt make any sense. the bolts stripped all the threads in the block. the lug nuts used on the 2 long LS head bolts made me laugh all night as i was disassembling everything. lol. I guess the copper spray was used so it can help it seal, as the builder knew it will leak? lol. I guess that the exhaust leak on the header was caused by reusing an old ass gasket? lol







Again folks, take your hard earn money to a professional shop or someone you trust. I only do this on the side, as i have a full time job at a company. The owner of the car decided that he will go ahead and buy a gsr long block. Please dont let this kind of stuff happen to you!

OH MY GOD THIS IS HILARIOUSSS HAHAHAH

idiots are believing his shit...

first off... for the record... OZ BUILDS HIGH QUALITY SHIT AND THAT WAS FOR SURE NOT WHAT HE DID BECAUSE I WAS THERE WHEN HE BUILT THE MOTOR LOL.... anyways ((( I"M THE ONE WHO DROVE TO MAHDAVI WHEN WE WENT TO GET THE ARP HEAD STUDS AND LS VTEC CONVERSION LINES MOTHERFUCKER CUZ YOU NEEDED THAT SHIT ASAP))) if he had the proper shit why would he ghetto rig it? specially when its a customer's build. His biz thrives on reputation, pretty sad of you to try to down that.

Hrm... dont ALL THREE of the accusors owe Oz money
John... ~$400 (motor build)
Jimmy... ~$200 (clutch change)
Leo's theifing ass (EG2) ~$600-700 (by the way he stole Oz's laptop and some phones from his house and got caught, this dumbass accidently stole 2 BROKEN treo 650s that he had for sale instead of the new ones hahahahah fucking dumb peice of shit)

so anyways they owed him ... now they figure busting this bullshit out and he'll clear their debts...

lol but any how i heard of this shit months ago when Oz's like that motherfucker took that shit to like 10 different mechanics bc he wasn't going to check out your "overheating car" aka: BLOWN HEADGASKET because you owed him $ for the build and didn't pay him.. .i was there when u called about that shit.... lol i'm like don't do SHIT unless he pays you for the rest... and it as ALL your fault that the headgasket blew... the fan wasn't part of his job anyhow...

but thats just what I know off the bat i'm gonna wait for him to post... i already called him up....

anyhow NO WHERE CAN YOU GET A WARRANTY ON A MOTOR BUILD...


by the way that is clearly not the motor that Oz built for this waste of sperm.
(different cams... ARP head bolts!!! (oz has like 10 empty boxes in his garage... why the fuck would he use... watever the fuck those were).... That may be the motor that he built for you, but that for damn sure isn't the parts that he put in it.

anyhow you guys still owe him money .... this bullshit wont help at all.

and Leo... you are in for an ass whooping... fuckin faggot ass theif
