I'm sure he got a killer deal on the engine so I'm actually a little pissed that he's not sharing results.

Actually I'm not surprised at all. Every single time I've requested data for one reason or another from anyone in the last 11 yrs I've never once got anything at all from anyone in the form of concrete data.
Having said that, please understand the guy is a customer who wanted a re-build, he paid full price for this engine and agreed to have it in his car because Rob gave him a smokin warranty for doing it. No loss to him if it goes wrong. It's the guy's commuter to and from work so we get some good mileage there but he cannot be without it at this point. Don't worry, we'll get a look through the exhaust ports and eventually it will come apart for all to see.
Actually only one of the housings in his engine has the re-chrome, Rob built a seperate engine with the other housing we had. Basically we wanted a starting point as fast as possible and this was the best opportunity to make that happen. In the long run it will pay off because we get some high miles, I believe the engine has been running for 3+ yrs
