Karl and Steve

Thanks for selling me the tire and wheels - LOL!

Once again my checks to the tune of over $6,600.00 did not fail... Dudes, we paid you to fix the piece of junk, we trusted you to do so in a reasonable time frame per our emails! You got the car the on 04/13/07 on 06/16/07 the build was complete but you informed us of piston damage on cylinder 3 and 4. A second rebuild was initiated and we got it back after the second build around 9/9/07. These are the facts, they can not be interpreted… I have pics if anyone is interested.

Folks, who of you would feel good about that, heck yes we wanted the car back… Karl, you told me to deal with Steve and yes not to bring the car back…. Your argument about time is right on, but four plus months is way over the top.

How do you explain away these facts: your second head gasket leaked, even after you took it to the tuners in Elgin, Illinois for a week and in the end never got it tuned? The answer is use the copper gasket and torque the head correctly and you get no leak....

So I ask you again how do explain the following:

Valve cover leaking oil?
Front crankshaft seal leaking oil?
Rear main seal leaking oil?
Oil pan gasket leaking oil?
Missing oil dip stick?
How about the two missing bell housing bolt?
Front bumper apron fastener’s missing, zip tied on one side..

Steve at your expense you did repair the CV Axle boot because good god the motor was pulled out three times....

We still use the SPA wastegate you installed!

The block was not NEW, your quote "We just got the block back a few minutes ago. We will begin assembly right away”. I have it if you want it back.

I think we have raised enough questions on this for what its worth.

The work was bad, you and I have the pics to prove it. Let’s move on, or get some one else involved to get our story straight!

Cheers
