Now they're inferring that you're a thief because you want the flywheels returned first.
I'm now officially ashamed to be associated with such a bunch of pathetic losers. Thanks for trying John but you can't help the hopeless, and they are truly clueless. 1971 145S - 1972 1800ES - 1982 245 GLT |

Don't even have time to look cause i have to go pick up ---and pay another $1000+ dollars--and get the things to the balance man.. Ask the mods what the fuck they are doing. The useless twits.

DOING??? lol Talk is cheap I say that all the time and I'll translate it for you here where it won't get struck down... They do BULLSHIT! There isn't a mod on there that does anything tangible. Doug & Dale folded up their part's tents, Towery might pull a part down off the shelf once in a blue moon for a worthy cause, but other than that they are a bunch of E-janitors that just sweep the naked truth under the carpet to fester. It might be OK if they did a fair job of sweeping the floors, but anytime a new guy with some fabrication skills or fresh ideas comes along they sit on their thumbs and watch as the new talent is hunted down and burned at the stake. The movers and shakers with the hardware know what's up and what's what, the rest is talk and an occasional meet, usually hosted by one of the doers anyway. So it goes on Fantasy Island. :e-shrug: 1971 145S - 1972 1800ES - 1982 245 GLT |

You really want to have an expensive sensor you can't get to without removing gearbox and bellhousing?? There are simpler and cheaper ways to sense Crank Position.. Will you be using LH2.4? That's the only reason to use such an annoying set up.. John Vanlandingham Sleezattle, WA, USA Vive le Prole-le-ralliat www.rallyrace.net/jvab CALL +1 206 431-9696 Remember!

No the screws that fix it are inside the bellhousing... they're like $189 and a pain in the ass.. John Vanlandingham Sleezattle, WA, USA Vive le Prole-le-ralliat www.rallyrace.net/jvab CALL +1 206 431-9696 Remember! Pacific Standard Time is 3 hours behind Eastern Standard Time. |

It's a black and white issue for me. I paid full price, I would like to have the product that I ordered. I feel bad for the hit you are taking but I can't see a reason why your company's mistake should be my limitations. I don't want this post to come off as cold, only concise. Give me a call if you want to chat more about this. Zap zap my ass... |

You don't want to come off as cold?-- then why don't you go edit it and say "the fucking CNC mill guys stonewalling and refusing to correct his fuck up" instead of the Turbobrick-like "your company's mistake"? Bullshit persists when people do what you just did. Get's pretty tiresome reading people refer to these $3500+ fuck up by Jake the CNC mill guy as "your mistake--you fucked up--" You want a replacement- you'll get it. But it is nothing short of stupid to use a TDC senor there where a single pinched wire or shitty ground means a DNF do to the impossibility of access in the timeframe we have at events.

Well obviously I'm disappointed and pissed that Jake fucked up and nobody, me included can believe he's just basically said "Oh well, I fucked up, sorry but I'm booked up and can't do anything" and then to see people say YOU fucked up, and "he's ripping us off" when I'm spending thousands of dollars and making everything right, you can imagine that it pisses me off to see "your company's mistake"... My company, me, even lowered the price from the test run of 10 to lower than the next other choice. And since I know that getting a good balance on anything isn't easy, I arranged to have them balanced, and since jake fucked the teeth, I have to pay out for that also. Sucks big time Especially for a TDC method that is so stupid and which I'd never voluntarily use of recommend.

The purchasers were not Jake's customers, he was the subcontractor. They were JVAB customers so mistakes by someone you subcontracted too are still borne by you unfortunately. Good on you for making it right for people though. Grant Hughes |
