yeah, jj i would say you got the shortest end of the what was left of the stick. all in all, from the $7k i paid him and then the $11.5k i paid the new guy to fix everything he screwed up, it wound up costing me @ $18k +. that doesn't include the 2.5" kinsler injectors i traded him for a set of titanium valves that turned out to be a $140 set of (bent!!!!) stainless valves.
