Re: I think my mechanic burned me please advise
Wish I had better news, but I agree with everyone else. Wiped lobes means a teardown. Block needs flushed. For the money you paid, they should have called that out. So if anything, I'd bring that up with them on that (I'd say they are the experts and you are just learning, might make them feel better rather than you sounding like a know-it-all). Any shop worth a darn should stand behind their work, at the very least, they should have advised you properly when you went in with a wiped cam. So they didn't do any test drives? What about break-in? Did they at least do that? You didn't say, but I assume it's flat tappet because roller cams rarely go flat.
