Its your money, he should fix it even if you have to buy a new bearing, he should do it for free or half cost or something. If you want I have two friends that have helped me in negotiations...Smith&Wesson. I can have them help you too :bye:

After telling him I ran a stock ECU and the rest of the motor was pretty much stock too, he didn't have any other ideas. He also said after looking at bearing #2 that the crank is fine to use w/o micropolishing. He left them for the builder to look at, I'm going to give them a call on monday. at this point I could care less about spending $40 on new rod bearings, I just want to drive my civic!
