Unhappy Wtf???

Hey guys, here's what's up... A few weeks ago my headgasket blew in my 95 RS so I had the guys in the shop fix it for me. When I picked it up a couple of days ago the engine was knockin' like hell and it sounded freakin horrible. So as I was driving back to go complain to the jerks who "fixed" it, a loud BOOM came from the engine, the oil light came on, and it died. There were no fluids on the road or anything. So, they picked the car up and a few hours lata they told me that a pin in the camshaft broke and "two of my valves blew". Are these guys just dickin me over or what? I didn't have the time to do the work myself and now I'm regretting it. Thanks a bunch!

Your motor is screwed, I don't think they are dicking around. They should cover it though, seeing as they just did the work on it and at the least they should cut you a deal, because your gonna need a rebuild.

I talked to the owner and he said the work was on him so that makes me feel alot better. I just paid him 1200 for the headgasket so I was kinda worried. So, what causes valves to blow? Thanks
