If that doesn't I don't know what will. Everything on that engine is new, and when i mean everything it's really everything

Pistons, cams, cylinders, new lifters, valves, cam phasers with lockouts, timing kit, new spark plugs and coils, new water and oil pump, new injectors, new intake manifold, new knock sensors, new battery, camshaft position sensor, oil pressure switch, fuel filter and still doesn't run ok, I mean it runs good but idles like crap. What a nightmare uh?

Cylinders? Those arent replaceable as they are essentially the engine block. You didnt mention main and rod bearings. Worn mains will drastically reduce oil pressure causing a lack of oil pressure to the top end of the engine. Do you have a print out of everything that was done in this "rebuild" ?

I meant rebore cylinders, well at least one. I didn't get a printout of all the work done and parts used. Rod bearings were also replaced

Might as well do them all, if you're going that far, so they're all the same size and have new pistons
