omg they may have ruined this engine; there are very detailed specifications on where and how much sealant should be used on the camshaft carriage, timing chain cover, and valve cover. There are also strict torque specifications for every bolt on these motors yet they did not once use a torque wrench. Valve backlash adjusters should also be flushed with a solvent like kerosene then filled with motor oil (these should be very firm and have no spring when installed) hopefully the machine shop they sent this too understood that each individual block, crankshaft, and connecting rod can have a range of sizes and that replacement bearings come in several sizes and need to be chosen based on the factory sizing of each mating component. This engine may run for a bit but if it was not properly rebuilt it won't last long. They also used the wrong sealant; the correct stuff is grey (I can't recall the name of it).

some people really hate details and being meticulous if you observe most mechanically inclined people are messy and chaotic they may love machines but they just hate rules and details especially when they are convinced its pointless the other thing is those people don't have access to manuals they learn by improvising or trial & error the notion of torque specs never heard of but i honestly respect them for learning everything by themselves its really hard to work on all kind of cars too much info and variations if there was no internet I wouldn't know much about cars
