So, does the plan include addressing the water and oil temp, or are you just going to open up the lifter to bore and valve stem clearances and let the temps fall where they may?

Glad the block didn't need a sleeve Tim!

Is that why BHB switched to pushing Johnson instead of Morels? You guys are like best friends forever no?

I don't have oil temp issues at all, I will look at adding some water temp. Lifter bores already done in ine block pulling other engine tomorrow to tear down and add a litke more there to be safe, all heads will be opened up and whatever else Phil needs to do to make them for my application.

I am not going to go back and forth with you as its apparent you have something against Bob and think you are smarter than everybody else. You have been asked to lay off the personal attacks but its obvious that is not working so its time to try something else.

So as I take it the route cause has been found, and the perfect storm of circumstances brought it to the surface. And the higher ups at the companies involved are going above and beyond (way beyond) to help get this fixed and resolved. Nice to see and says a lot about those people and there companies, instead of the typical "improper install/misuse no warranty"

Yes that's exactly how it is and it makes me happy that in this day and age done company's stand behind the things discussed and product. Very rare that happens

Exactly that's why it means the world to me that they stood up and took care of me because we all feel there was a little bit of at fault all across-the-board
