Not sure how this situation is usually handled when an engine has issue at the dyno from improper assembly that damaged parts. If the pick up tube fell off and damaged parts on dyno, why were you charged for new parts? Is there some type of warranty? The issue was not your doing so why did you have to pay for that mistake?

Also wanted to add. I was talking with my engine builder last month when my motor was on the dyno. Some how the subject of the "pick up tube falling off" came up. He told about a situation that happen on his motor at the quarter mile track. He lost oil pressure during a 1/4 run, when he got it apart, he found the oil pump tube laying in the pan, said all the bearing looked fine. So not sure that much damage could be done with missing pick up tube. He also runs a MSD and it was not damaged either.

So sorry to hear about the issues. No good for anyone. Hopefully someone can show you the basics(adjusting timing, setting idle on carb) and this motor sorted for you.
