Yes, the McCarty/BES Racing Crate Engine after only 2 N/A dyno sessions which were performed by BES was torn down after I received it.
I have no excuse for not having the 2nd machine shop fix an issue that would have been a non-issue if either the first shop addressed the problem or simply used another lifter like a Crower 66294. These roller lifters feature a special alloy body, a lightweight design, and a heavy-duty blade that has been moved up to fit late model blocks.
