Maybe if you could form a complete thought, you might have had a better experience with your car and this thread.

Well Sharif himself said that he does not know for sure...he did not take the motor apart before he tuned it...So how would he know for sure??? Sharif is known for NOT willing to push the limits and this is why most who know him are saying this!!...It had to be a defective motor !

Why don't you do what MMC Racing said. If you want us to stop laughing at you and start taking you half-way seriously, post a well-articulated, point by point explanation of all the facts and events.

I suppose you'll probably ignore this suggestion.

Observation 1 - Everyone makes mistakes
Observation 2 - Maybe this was a "weak" motor. There are assumptions that the 3.7 is good to 500hp all day long, but maybe not. Maybe that motor lasts 10 years at 400hp. My feeling is if a person wants to push a stock block and it fails, then it is their responsibility unless a mistake was made by the shop doing the work. The mistake could be mechanical or in tuning.
Observation 3 - How the stock motor went isn't relevant at this point. The OP agreed to a built block and Sharif ate some of the cost. What I am still interested in is why everything took so long and what were the real time estimates that Sharif gave to the OP.

The mechanic Patrick was fired after working on this car. I wonder why that was, and soon after we got the Lexus to drive.

How about just stop stressing yourself here on the forum trying to defend yourself cause it seems like not many people are on your side. Why deal with the drama?.....Deal with the problem face to face with FP instead isnt that a better idea then stressing yourself trying to convince people of your problems with FP here? You want the thread locked but then again you keep on replying here. Think about it

I agree....I am sure Sharif will answer #3......But as Dil and a few others have stated including me....Time lines and Sharif dont mix. Not saying that makes it ok....but as you are well aware....things always come ....always !! My car has been to FP 4 times....and things always come up to delay pick up. Everytime you build one of these cars..its like defusing a bomb

Would it be any different if one of the well known TTZ drivers blew their own engine? or even a not so well know shop? A blown engine is a blown engine....chit happens
