Thanks for the warning. Hope it all turns out the best for you.
Did you leave negative feedback on the scammer?I feel panheadchuck's pain, i got took to the cleaners on abodies and when i finally got in contact with the turd who scammed me, i just told him i would go to hell and back to find him, what does he do , calls the administrator (Joey) saying i threatened him, so what happened got banned from a bodies for 2 years, the asshole that scammed me even had balls enough to call me after he scammed me to say he and his friends had one hell of a party on my money. I drove 5 hours one way to take a warrant out for him, also run a background check, he burned a historic hotel lighting a fatboy with a brown paper bag at age 16, he had 5 alias and 4 addresses, and a criminal record 2 sheets long and him only 34, but i was the one who got the bad deal ,trying to explain to the admin. of this site to pull up his record and all it took for him to get me banned was to call Joey and say i threatened him, all i had done is answer his smartass statement that i wouldn't drive 300 miles to take out a warrant for him, thats when i told him i would go to hell and back after him for what he scammed me for.So when someone gets screwed out of his money the last thing he needs is someone come along and tell you how dumb you are, and if you don't try to save money on parts and tools, then i'm glad you have a fat wallet,but this thread is the reason people leave a bodies, and reason i have quit posting, but i thought you should show a little compassion ,instead of saying how dumb someone is ,they are done hurt from being screwed without you rubbing it in like a 5th grader.As far as you panheadchuck, call the FTC and report it, if they are listed as a business, you can file a complaint if they didn't give you what they advertised.

this is why I do and will always put together my own ****, so I know for a fact exactly what's there, and if it fails, I can't put it on anyone but me.
If he bought an engine, perhaps he cannot build his own. If there is a member in his area that can help, maybe he could offer up some supper and a 12 pack or pay a little something for said member to lend a hand. Just a thought.
Yeah. I need therapy now. Where's my Fireball?
So I went back and read this thread again because I didn't really understand why he got so butthurt last night.
I take 2 things away from this.
1) he didnt get scammed or ripped off he received the engine at the price they agreed upon! The only thing he didnt receive is a cam card! I would be upset if I paid 15 grand and didnt get a cam card but I wouldn't consider it a scam as a matter of fact I dont see anywhere in the description of the add where it says a cam card is included.
2) the OP jumped the gun on calling the ppl who was trying to help him out assholes lol
3) you stated that you gavent even started the engine yet so how are you gonna leave negative feedback and rip this company over a product you haven't even tried?? Because of you didn't receive a cam card??
I'm not sure how much it it would cost to build 600hp but it does seem like 15k could build a really nice engine at a local machine shop. Especially if you did your homework and gathered up the parts yourself.If I had 15K to drop on an engine, my butt would have flown in, picked it and any associated paperwork up and flown back home. Can buy a 15K dollar motor but won't go get it in person. That even sounds stupid. No way would I make a purchase that big and not put my grubby mitts on it first.

I really dont feel anyone was trying to insult him. I understand that text can come off different than intended. If I came off that way i apologize. I am truly sympathetic about his situation. I would like to have some more info before we go string up MM tho lolPanheadchuck, dont let a few people on here ruin your buy, some was talking about how you should have built your own motor, they don't realize that some of us don't have time and a place along with the tools to build from the bottom up, so i wish you luck,and i realize plain talk is easy understood, but when you are posting something trying to help the masses on A bodies and all they do is insult, its very easy to drop off a bodies and never post again, We have a saying here in the Appalachian mountains ,for people who insult us ,and think they are smarter than us, UP YOUR *** ,WITH MOBILE GAS.
What’s ”the list”?Since I'm not a pansy, I don't beat around the bush. Welcome to "the list".
Yeah, sorry, don’t think he’ll be back for a second round of ripping on him..Yea I agree with that.
The OP hasn't been back on since he posted this and called us all assholes. I hope that he will come back on and let us know what happens with the engine.
If Mike is still with MM, I am sure he will get what you need. He had been brutally slow with somethings I needed in the past. From a business perspective, my last motor that I purchased from them did not last as long as I had expected and when taken apart, it was clear it was a rush job. I got what I paid for, but wouldn’t have paid for what I got. I did not know any better at the time. Andrew
I don't think I ripped him?? I was being friendly!!Yeah, sorry, don’t think he’ll be back for a second round of ripping on him..

Claim not to be a pansy then block someone you disagree with?"The list" is usually when someone chooses to block your content from showing up on their feed.
I don't think I ripped him?? I was being friendly!!
a guy posts on here sayingNobody ripped him. He ripped us first when he cursed us. If people cannot see that in this thread, they are blind.
