    Greetings all,
    I purchased a long block from Yoda Shop. What a mess!
    Has a cheap Chinese reworked head on it. All the threaded holes had to be taped to get all the FOD out 8 hrs to do that. Cam was chipped on several lobes, corner of the block cracked. Wrong cams causing a pO 340 code. These gues suck.The build shop is in Tennessee not washington. Becareful!!!

    Both Chinese valve grind as a Chinese Casting. Why would Yoda Shop put a POS head and charge 6,700 for a reman. Don't do business with these scam artists
