Not to but personally I would have called the shop first and then if It couldn't be worked out amicably and professionally then make a post for public opinion and discussion.The post title itself left nothing to guess about: R block and head porter,certainly brings one of the best small block guys to my mind"Ryan J".And for my opinion the best "small block mopar guru".Ryan is and will always be my go-to guy when I have any questions about small blocks.
Glad you guys are getting together
