It's useable...it isn't so much that it's irreperable, it's just the way that they handled the entire order from start to finish. There were two billing "mistakes," they were extremely hard to get in touch with, and even if you did get in touch with them they didn't like to give any information on the status of the order. They would answer questions without answering them...I'd ask when my heads would ship, and they'd say "they're starting on them today." Okay, so when will they ship?

My favorite thing was openning up the shortblock--after waiting 6 weeks for the heads (which I told would be there 3-4 days after the shortblock)--to find that the cylinder walls were rusted from them not coating the walls before shipping. They just said "it's your fault." Didn't apologize, didn't tell me to fuck off...nothing. I just decided to drop it and move on. The truck's going to haul ass with the new setup, but I will never ever recommend TSP to anyone for anything.

And I thought about getting your engine...would've been MUCH cheaper, but I needed a few more cubes than that.

this was his first assembly, and not knowing much about switching oils and the damage it can do to seals...

it started leaking from so many spots, he just decided while he was going to redo the seals, he was going to pull the motor and put in the metal(?) head gaskets...

this was on the old old old board, like 2001-ish i think

switching oils damages seals?

[iniviate]

apparently.....

[rageinashell]

okay so after hearing you say this, i put my flame suit on and went searching through the deap depths of the internet to find a few simple things...

Engines can be switched from or to synthetic oil at any time, as there is no real chemical difference.
****All oils pass a seal compatability test, but leaks can occur in older engines that have seals which are varnished over from the inside and have become dried out. High detergent levels in synthetic oil can clear away the "false seals" and allow some leakage that should stop after the once-dry seals are re-wetted and swell.****
Synthetic oils should not be considered as cost-effective, but rather a luxury item. Oil companies and auto mfgs agree that change intervals should not be extended beyond what is recommended in the service manual, despite the use of synthetic oil. Still, cost-effectiveness of synthetic oil can be obtained by extending the change interval of the oil filter to every 5,000 miles (top off after changing) and of the synthetic oil to every 10,000 miles. This regimen has been performed with very successful results.
Plain quality filters last as long as most people are willing to use the oil it filters. 10k miles is fine for even basic grade filters and the "one" oil company that leads the synthetic market states that no special filter is needed.
Be certain to use the weight (Example: 5W-20; 5W-30) of synthetic oil recommended for your vehicle and the weather conditions in which it is driven.
Before driving the vehicle after an oil change, be certain to start and run the engine to full oil pressure. Then, check for any oil leaks around the filter seal and pan plug. After shutting the motor off, wait three or four minutes for the oil to run back to the oil pan; then check the level of oil with the dipstick to be certain it is full.

so after reading that i would ASSUME that he was not doing one of the following things: 1.using the right gaskets 2. use a little RTV sealant when applying said gaskets 3. use the right weight oil...

just goes to show, i dont know shit...

Wow 10,000 miles. I would be so scared to run the car passed 5k miles. Hell I'm changing the oil today and its like 50 miles over 3k and that makes me worry. I know plenty of people run to about 5k miles per oil change but... is 10k reccommended by anybody? Especially if you want your motor to last for as long as possible.

I wouldn't. Especially on a car that gets driven hard. I might do it on a daily driven beater car that I didn't particularly care about, but I'd atleast keep the filter changes up to date.

don't know exactly who but my boss was talking about some manufactures coming out with 10k mile service intervals for oil changes on new cars in 09.

i personally have ran a mazda b2000 for well over 10k without changing the oil and i changed the filter around 10k. it would burn the oil so fast though i had to add oil and take the plugs out to clean them every week or so that i didn't figure it needed it. that truck still got 22+mpg in the city every day.

Yes, it is universally endorsed by engine rebuilders, reman facilities, and people who otherwise make a living by replacing worn out engines throughout the world.

They recommend never changing the oil and changing your motor every 7500...lol

[devilbrad]

Mazda service intervals are 7,500 miles.
