At this point it's been a month and half since the engine blew so the idea of waiting another month before I get it back is not my favorite, but I think it makes the most sense. I'll let everyone know how it goes.

So what does Ghassan do with the engine? |
Ghassan will get the long block and rebuild it. All new gaskets/seals along with balancing the crankshaft and any other adjustments needed to fix damage caused by the rod bearing failure. Once he's done, the engine will come back to my mechanic to be reassembled and installed back in the car. It's quite a process and will require well over 50 hours of labor to make it all happen.
