I am too poor right now to be able to afford a short block so it wasn't me. well, that plus I would just drive down there to get it from him. Now it is time for sherlock to find out who the real culprit is.

I don't think they post on here, but I'm positive they're aware of the forum. To boot, it was the kid's dad that ended up being the bad guy since he was the one paying for the motor.

It just amazes me that people expect any purchase to be returned when they get buyer's remorse. Somehow they relate a semi custom engine to a potato peeler that they bought from Target.
I'm sorry that it happened and I'm sorry that we are loosing a resource, but I can't hold it against you.

They probably don't read your posts or have met you in person to know what you are like. They probably were not happy about the time issue. It sucks I know. I'm just trying to see where they are coming from. It's a built engine though. It doesn't happen over night like some ppl seem to think after watching TLC.

You hit that right on the head. Too many people do not realize how long stuff takes to fabricate....stuff does not happen overnight. This is double BS because the UPS thing is out of your control....what an azzmonkey
People suck.
Rev it till it MELTS.....
