I believe most of his issues have been oil pressure related. We have a disagreement about some of the causes/issues but I don't think he has opened up the wounded motors for confirmation yet. He just sources another one. You can contact him if you like at his website:

Haha none of this crazy m96 German stuff. In another life I spent way too many hours inside Chevy/Honda/Nissan motors. After 20 years my fingernails are finally almost clean. I have retired my piston ring compressor tools but I still have opinions.
