actually it is, the only way i could go about getting any money back is to bring the short block back to NY so the machinist could see for himself. even then he would probaly rather rebuild then refund which would be fine with me.
but im not in a position to take off work or even leave the state now since my wifes going into labor anyday now so the next couple of months is gonna be pretty busy
for us. so im just gonna have to eat the cost this time.
