Werd. To tell ya the truth it doesn't even looked pluged yet. But I'm sure it was done right. If no there would be some nice ticking noises from the engine 
Well, if you're refering to the small hole to the very right of the block, that hole is actually plugged, which is why I took that picture.
For what it's worth, the car makes no noise whatsoever, the oil level is normal and clean at this point, and I have a little over a thousand miles on the new motor.

Well just to ease our minds, you did use some kinda threaded plug in that hole right?

Well, okay, whatever you say. But to be honest, I don't know, I had SHOshop build it, so we'll soon see!

I wouldn't worry about it much, I think they supposingly have a warranty so they probably have a plug in there.

Yeah, it's a 12 month/12,000 mile warranty, so if it blows up, it should do it now. No problems so far....

It's on the stock computer now, and I'll try to take it to the dyno this week or next. Once I have it dyno'ed, I want to take it to a local Diablsport dealer to have a dyno-tuned chip burned for the car....  Probably somewhere above 7200, but not too much higher.
