in their defense, how do you know they werent asked to rebuild the motor with those parts? ive been around the shop for countless engine buildings and they have always told the customers when parts (housings, rotors, etc) need to be replaced. I have never seen them re-use old water seals. if this motor blew once, and then again, you think it might be a problem with something else other than the motor that wasnt fixed?

i understand things happen but this whole car was built by T&R..... if you blame the builder of the car and the builder of the engine it leads to the exact same place...

This is a very ignorant comment. If I had a customer tell me to rebuild their engine with garbage parts, I would send the customer out my door with his car. Plus like Vosko said ,all the work was done by this shop in NYC. The owner bought a re-man engine. I have bought a couple of re-man engines and they come with rotors that meet all clearances, side housings,rotor housings and spotless eccentric shaft. There is no excuse for this type of bad work.
