Re: Question on MAP built shortblocks.

Figure I would give an update.

Turns out (99% sure) the shortblock is okay, the head had a very bad blown headgasket according the machinist. Said from working on it, the head must have just been put on hand tight with a ratchet and called good, didn't torque it. Plus, the valve stem seals were pretty bad on there which was my oil problem out of the exhaust ports.

I ordered rings from you guys that had to be special ordered from Mahle, is there any way to return those or since it was a special order, the sale is final?
