THEY CAN SEE DAMAGE FROM ENG OVER REV SUCH AS STRETCHED RODS.but THEY CANNOT SAY WHEN THAT DAMAGE WAS DONE.UP TO YOU BUT I WOULD CONCIDDER LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THE COMPANY.MAY COST MORE TO PROVE AND RECOVER THEN YOU PAID. BUT 110 DOLLARS TO REPLACE A ENG IN A FERRARI IS IMPOSSIBLE. MAYBE THEY JUST CHARGED YOU PART OF THE LABOR. EITHER WAY MY OPINION YOU HAVE BEEN ROBBED. WHAT YOU DO ABOUT IT IS UP TO YOU BUT THIS IS NOT RIGHT.

And what about the rev limiter ?

Merry Christmas. Thank you again.
