I have addressed some of the issues that you raised on your website. My responses are below:

I did not know for a fact that the cam timing was incorrect until NoShoes actually verified that it was messed up while he was re-doing the cam timing. You led me to believe that the cam timing could not have been messed up and told me that it was OK. I did all of my racing and land speed records after NoShoes fixed the cam timing.

I did tell you that it had been overheated badly once, and that after that it would start to overheat if I boosted it hard for a while, but that I never overheated it badly after that.

1. A bad head gasket upon which you immediately told me that I then have to replace it for you for free because I built the engine.

2. A cracked cylinder head upon which you told me that if the cylinder head is craked I had to replace it because I supplied the head

3. A cracked cylinder block and same story here, I had to replace it because I supplied it.


You told me that all of these things could have been problems with the engine before you rebuilt it (this was not my core). You told me that you do some checks, but if you did not find a problem, even if there was one, you could not be held accountable for delivering me a bad motor. You stated that if you used a bad block, that I would have to take the problem up with Toyota, not you, since they are the manufacture. I disagreed since you are the one who sold me the block. It is ridiculous to expect me to contact Toyota regarding problems with a rebuilt block that you performed work on and sold to me.
