Just a question on your motor and builder.

Did the engine really come from the builder with water/antifeeeze in it? Was this because he dynoed it and left coolant in it?

My practice is to leave the drain plugs out and give them to the customer seperately so there is no question of who is responsible.

If he dynoed it and had only water in the dyno circulating tank he should have pulled the drain plugs. I also think you should have pulled the plugs to protect yourself. Did you install this engine and then not start it or store it over the winter before installinng it?

Not trying to be picky, just might help someone else later.
