Really cant see chris building an engine like this he has a very good name for building and tuning engines why take a risk like this taking shortcuts, have you contacted him? not saying its true but maybe the engine has been opened up since chris built it!

that was running a bar on ct9 and its built ages im sure its down to oil pressure problems and it has passed a few hands aswell

What was the pressure? All fine and well saying it was fine, but what was the pressure?
When was the engine rebuilt? Did you have it rebuilt or did somebody else own it before you?

I don't see any 'wood bolts and nuts' or 'cable ties everywere'! It's span a bearing shell, that's got nothing to do with the boost pressure being run. It's a result of an oil pressure issue, a blocked gallery, lack of oil or a failed oil pump. If the engine wasn't assembled correctly it would have failed soon after.

started off by saying it was newly built , now its been built ages. and has changed hands a few times so you dont really know what the engines been exposed to. i would get your facts straight before accusing people mate.

I don't think I've ever used black sump sealer at that , lot of factors to be pointing the finger at me dude even if It turns out I did build it

Yep. it's crazy to buy a car second hand, and try to tarnish someone's name, given *anything* could have happened in however many months/years since it was 'apparently' built...
