Bad News I picked up my car yesterday on the way home 50 mi from pruven or home my car made this wierd sound like if you hit the J brake on a truck so...... the morning pruven pickup my car it is in route back to pruven to fix the problem

we took out the plugs and one of them was bent but.... on the other hand the pistons are still moving up and down which leads us to believe I didn't throw a rod + no leaks whatsoever (thank god!!!) on the other hand I may have snapped/bented a valve (which sucks) but we will not know until pruven take the head off on monday

so in turn I still have no car but.... while I did I liked it better than sex!!!

UPDATE:

Pruven just called they said they did a compression test 170 across the board so.... that means I didnt blow the motor (thank god) now on to the main question what happen???? Well by monbay hopefully I will know but I still will give my car to pruven anyday because of the customer service they came of milford, CT to the whitestone bridge and picked up my car (free of charge) AS SOON as they found out and after getting it back they immediately started working on it to me thats very important to me I know when I get it back it will be as strong if not stronger then before so dont knock pruven just yet I still have faith in them

Yeah, its one of the risks of doing a full buildup in a short period of time.. you don't get the chance to iron the glitches out of each thing as you go along.. so your bound to have a problem or two..

In all honesty, its cool that you got all this done, but you should have made a list of things you wanted to do, and tackled them in groups so you would have the car to drive in between, and also resolved issues between mod sessions.

Obviously you stuck to your plan because you did it all at once, but I don't know that I would have wanted to lose my car for 3 months.. 3 days is too long for me..

As soon as we get your new set of injectors, we will get them installed and on your way once again. Just for all to know, it was 1 injector that locked open and basicly locked down the motor. I am hopeing, at this point, this hyda-locking didn't bend a rod or hurt a bearing. Because of the good compression test we feel the motor is more than likely O.K. We should still pull down the oil pan to check to make sure the motor is fine and not French fried.

If the place where you brought them from won't return them, we can get them for you. After we put them in, your car should go back on the dyno just to make sure your air/ fuels haven't changed. Hopefully you won't have any more parts go bad!! LOL!! Like I said, the sooner we get the injectors the better. We want to get you on your way. It definitly is not a nice feeling to have spent all these "months" and money to have a little thing go bad and disable your car.
