I don't know if I trust a dealership messing with my engine either since its so heavily modified.

I'm in a bit of a pickle but I almost think I'm just going to roll the dice on this one...

Anyone else feeling this way or am I silly to gamble on this.
if your motor is built, why do you have to do the recall? I'd assume if you have aftermarket valve springs, this wont be an issue. but i'm in the same boat as you...this recall came out about a month or two after I swapped my blown motor for another '13 motor (i'm turbocharged). I will also be rolling the dice...worst case, I'll build my original heads
