First mistake was buying an engine that was used. IMO I would not buy a used engine from someone who I don't personally know that knew how to care for an engine. Ive bought 2 used engines and both were gems, but they came from guys that knew how to tune and care for an engine. O.S. engines are great engines as long as the user knows how to run it. Ive just switched to them from nova based engines. Ive only run the small block OS engines, but have seen many big block engines by OS run great and get good mileage. I just invested in a V-Spec, and a .28XZ and will upgrade my CV-R in my GT for the newer style OS .12's when I go to the GT2.

BTW hows the pinch on the engine?
