So what exactly was wrong with the motor?
rudebwoyt: Good to hear the dealer at least cut you a nice break on fixing the original motor. I would take them up on it for the reasons you already listed and also to avoid having to explain why the engine was replaced with a different one when you go to sell the car in the future.
SKILMATIC: While your posts in this thread were most entertaining, I am now dumber for having read them. You'd best sell your Evo before your engine blows up again too.

Update
Well I left for vacation for 2 weeks to come to (AS I F**king expected) the car not being ready yet.
It took my mechanic 2 days to tear down the engine. But they cat acquire and new short block and repair the head in 2 weeks.
I'.ve now made 3 months worth of car payments and havent used the car in those 3 months.
My guess is the car sat "on the back-burner" because they knew I was out of town.
I'm really sick of dealerships.
Oh and to add insult to injury I'm betting they are gonna tack on some extra charges that were not in the original quote I signed off on..
JUST needed to rant.

If I blow my Evo I'll post up, but not to cry about it. Just to talk about my choice of mods and selection of biulder etc.
