    Nope, I didn't want them touching anything else. I sold it and the fellas who bought it was told about everything. I do have to see if I can find an oil pump. Not sure if I believe them but I will be looking through my box-o-parts to see if I have it. I am just glad it's somewhere where it will...

    That's cool. Many Hollywood types are total dicks. SOme are cool. Buddy Hackett is an asshole in real life. I missed the chance to meet him but he came to one of our jobs back in the 90's when I was framing houses. He was buddies with the contractor.

    I appreciate all you guy's info. Will start making plans to either go up there or fix it myself, depends on how the pistons are pinned to the rods. I will be taking pics with me either way and get a refund on some of the $'s I spent there.

    10-4, I will. BTW, I see you have a Rodney Dangerfield link on your ,,, replies. I was watching Back to School earlier and thought that was neat to see another Dangerfield fan and I love the Blues Brothers.

    Thank You for your info. I just hope things are made right with no extra cost to me. It shouldn't, I paid the $1,500 for all the machining I had done and now it looks like I will have to fix their crap.

    It will be flipping all pistons on all the rods. I did make sure about the orientation the rods were pointing/installed. They are correct.
  15. Greg A Sutphin

    That's why I am hoping the pistons are not pressed in. I won't even take it up there. I will take pics and carry up there and tell them they forked up and tell them they owe me some money.

    This one had the oil holes in the rods. The rods were reconditioned. The crank was only to be polished. I sent the rod and main bearings up there when I dropped the engine off.

    I will. I will take the lifters out and pull the oil pan and take pics so they can see the major screw up they created. Show them the rods are on the correct side but the pistons are bass ak-upside-wards.

    I would have to pull everything apart. They gave me a box of parts. I put them in so they wouldn't be in those boxes till I got off the road. That's when I noticed the pistons were not right. I haven't been home long enough to do anything for a while. I was a truck driver and stayed gone for a...

    No worries. I guess I better mic them and see about that too. I am used to getting screwed. I must be very good because people like doing it to me. LOL

    Yeah, I've been almost stoking out over this. Not in a good way either. LOL

    I will inform them tomorrow but I am going to pull one out and see if they're floating or pressed. If they're floating, I may carry it up there or make them refund me some money and do it myself. After this, I am afraid to have them touch anything else.

    400 stroker

    I will. I just hope they're floating pins because after this, I don't want them touching anything. I know the rods are pointing the right direction because I know the squirter holes need to be pointing towards the center. I too hate having to have others touch anything because of stuff like...

    The pistons will have to be flipped because the rods can't be. They are pointing the direction they're supposed to be pointing.

    The squirt holes are pointing toward the center of the block. I made sure to put the rods on the correct journal/side.

    The machine shop put the pistons on the rods. I put the rods on the journals they belong on. I didn't have time to do anything at the moment because I was in the process of moving and I didn't want parts laying in boxes forever. I was a truck driver and wasn't home to do anything about them for...
