I didn't know about the warranty of the engine as most companies don't have one. I tried everything (But of course calling) Last resort, I milled the cleeve out of the block. It took 2 hours. I basically moved in 2 thousands of an inch every time I made a cut and then check the work. Not 1 nick or scratch was made on the block. Sleeve finally came out. Purchased a rebuild kit, but, the new sleeve would not go into the block. I talked to Chris and same thing.

A go to guy... Unfortunately for me, I didn't get anything (wasn't expecting anything either) because of my attempt to remove the sleeve. I didn't destroy anything while trying to remove the p/s. Oh well, you win some, you loose some. Next time, if I purchase another Rossi engine, I will not do what I do and I will contact him.


BTW - Chris if you are out there, any news on a New Black Magic II with an updated alien head??? Put me on the list for one. Just kidding (Well, if you tell me on is coming for real, you can really put me on the list))

LOL
