for those that have misshifted, how many of you had a new motor and how many have had ur motor rebuilt? Of those that had theirs rebuilt (which i'm assuming is most) how many had their dealership do it right the first time? How many had to go back to the dealership at least once because of dealer not fixing it right the first time?

heres what my warranty list has on it, i dont have a scanner so ill have to type it all.

engine gasket kit, oil pump, intake valves, exhuast valves, chainm cyclinder head, short block, new shift gates/shifter, compression springs, spark plugs, camshaft, and some other ****.

i think the master tech did work on it. anyways, its in the shop again, hopefully they will get it right this time.

wow so basically a whole new freakin' engine. How could your camshafts have been messed up? what kind of misshift did you do? from which gear to which? I wonder why I didn't have any bent valves... mebbe the rod that I snapped saved the pistons from slapping? Well anyways, good luck man..
