    Damn I always hate to see this kind of shit. Reminds me of a situation with a kid I knew who was impatient and wanted to cheap out. He wanted a GSR swap, I told him to go to Mainstream as they would provide a quality motorset and quality install. He decided to find a "good deal" on ebay. He had the motor swapped in and it lasted about 150 miles before it slung a rod through the side of the block. Live and learn. That's all I can say. Good luck on getting your vehicle back in running order. Even if it means spending a little extra money, do it right THE FIRST TIME!!!! It always saves you money in the end.

    FIRST OFF, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO VOUCH FOR A MOTOR BUT NOT HOW ITS PUT TOGETHER. IM NOT FOLLOWING THAT...SORRY ENGLISH IS MY FIRST LANGUAGE.

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

    i'll vouch for Oz's craftsmanship all day, anyone feel like railing me for that? so how bout the people that never had a motor built by Oz put a cork in it--until you're talking from personal experience, your input is garbage. dude built up my h22, did the rings, valve seals, studs, crank seals, hone and polished, etc. all that good stuff, motor runs like a champ. accordin to Random Guy, having an assortment of mechanics touching your shit doesn't sound like a round idea, if you're not knowledgeable enough to mess with your own motor, who knows what people gonna do to it if you put it in there hands, or should i say lots of hands.

    I can vouch for OZ too, Ive done business with him a couple times, Ive also bought a vtec head from him in amazing condition, NOTHING wrong with it. OZ is a good guy, I highly doubt he built this, I think the guy whos motor this is has some explaining to do

    Random Guy, who are you calling a dumbass? First off, this is going by what the owner said. Also, why is OZ lurking around in this thread under username TYPERACER? This is not the first motor I've seen from him. He sold vinhsbodys a gsr long block that he said was good. I did a leak down test on it and 1 of the cylinder was not good. Vinhbodys had only gave him $800 down payment, and owed him another $500 for a total of $1300. Vinhbodys then calls him and told him that the leak down test was not good, and wanted a refund. OZ said go ahead and keep it for $800. Now, if the motor was good, he could of gotten $1300 for it, but instead he let it go for $800.

    that longblock was originally mine, i sold it to Oz and told him it was good because it didnt act stupid in my car. so Oz took my word and said it was good when he sold it. whoever bought it from Oz, saved 500 for prolly a bad ring or valve seal. like dude above me said, OZ only got 800 out of the 1300 he wanted, the other dude saved 500. so whats the problem??

    Yes, I built him a motor. I did not build that motor. That is my block however, I can still see the paint that I put on it. I dont know who the fuck redid that top end, and you know it wasn't like that when I gave it to you. That is all I have to say. I dont know wtf you're trying to pull, but YOU STILL OWE ME MONEY for the motor that I did build you... i dont know who the fuck in the right mind did that, probably the idiots who you took it to because I wasn't going to lay a finger on it until you paid me in full.

Vinhbodys had only gave him $800 down payment, and owed him another $500 for a total of $1300. Vinhbodys then calls him and told him that the leak down test was not good, and wanted a refund. OZ said go ahead and keep it for $800. Now, if the motor was good, he could of gotten $1300 for it, but instead he let it go for $800.
    i didn't build that motor, it was a used motor from a running car....
    He said it was bad, I thought it was good, I was going to give him a refund after he showed it was bad. He said he wanted to keep it as it is for $800 or he wants a refund. I already spent the money so I just took a loss at 800. You can ask him to verify that.
    More than likely the valves were probably just leaking due to carbon buildup around the valve seat.
    but anyhow that was out of my hand and I took care of that.
