Any advice/comments/concerns/tips for me from you guys?
The best laid plans of mice and men. I have had my Civic since June 2001 and taken good care of it, but I could go out tomorrow and get totaled by someone on their phone behind the wheel. It's just part of life. Your attitude is good, and the shop sounds like it wants to make it right. If the engine checks out... take it. Crazy fail story, though.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
