Hi guys,
Looking for a bit of advice and recommendations on what to do/possible engine builders to contact. Basically got a built engine that's begun knocking bottom end ran perfectly fine sensible driving until it got pushed on the dyno. Suspected bearing clearances incorrect since they're aftermarket ACL bearings (was not built by me). Possibly looking to salvage the head as it's ported/polished and has skunk2 parts.
I've contacted a couple places such as R-motion, TGM, Reidy racing etc. Just waiting on some replies and weighing up my options. I could get a used replacement but need to see it running, almost don't trust any engine now with my luck. I've received a decent quote from Reidy racing however there's no warranty with it and I'm worried if something goes wrong after. Anyone had experience with them or can recommend others to check out? even members on here etc. I don't have the tools/experience to tackle it myself and don't wanna screw it up. I'm in the midlands area so nearer the better.
Thanks in advance!
