[QUOTE="Black 02, post: 1156432, member: 6916"] Sorry for the delayed response. Well, I'm taking my engine in for disassembly and analysis tomorrow. I pulled it out and stripped most of the accessories off of it. Out of curiosity, I pulled the pan on it since I used the Moroso gasket. On a side note, that gasket is sahweeet. I highly recommend it. Upon pulling the pan off, I found a layer probably 1/4 inch thick or thicker of metal shavings over the entire sump. Both ferrous and non ferrous. Truly sickening. The engine is junk. I just pray that it didn't jack my Carillo rods up. I'll be curious to find out what the shop finds wrong with it. This engine had less than 5000 miles on it and it's basically scrap metal. This fiasco has been a complete disaster. [/QUOTE]
