Yeah, I dunno could the other things perhaps be BEARINGS? What kind of shop is this, or is it like at some random guys house who does brake jobs? I think your gonna get hosed on the bill. You should have put that money is suspension and brakes, and when the motor blows swap or replace it

Jesus christ, I bet that everyone saying "you should have done it yourself" doesn't even know where to begin when rebuilding a motor. There's just some **** you don't mess with when thousandths, hundreds, or whatever of an inch MATTERS. I'm sure the lot of you don't even know what a micrometer is. Let the kid get his engine rebuilt, because I'm damn sure most of you can't do it yourselves.
