The dealer blew your motor 4 times?!?! Yikes!! So sorry to hear that! I'm not a lawyer, but to me it sure sounds like dealer negligence.

Have you looked into the Lemon Laws in your state? Is there any legal recourse to force them to install a new long block? Lawsuits are never fun, but there is a time and place for them, and this might be one of them. Sometimes just a sternly worded letter from a reputable lawyer can scare people into doing the right thing, and it sounds like the right thing to do for you would be to give you a new long block, since they obviously are unable to safety and properly repair your current engine.

Good luck, with whatever you do, getting a new car or forcing them to compensate you fairly for your current one (or both).
