I don't know why this has not been locked down. Those of us that know better, are getting tired of this thread, lock it down. No body will ever know what actually happened; we, meaning most of us know what most likely happened. Like it was said, we... will never know the truth, other than our own knowledged from experienced. Facts are fact.

All I want to know is why the fk my name keeps getting dragged into it Like the rest of you I want to know how the hell it happened too ??? However after seeing the pictures there's no doubt in my mind what happen. Exactly how or why it happen will most likely remain a mystery, (just like it usually does when one of our motors let lose). One thing I do know is there was nothing to hide and the truck always ran perfect for me, so no Rob is not paying Gregg off under the table BECAUSE ROB DIDNT DO ANYTHING WRONG!!!

As for the price HOLY I THOUGHT SOME OF OUR VENDORS WERE OVER PRICED BATMAN
Gregg as everyone is saying that is a lot money, too much money : o ()
Schitt you could click on JLP's site right now and buy a brand new Built Motor + brand new Built Heads for $5K, add the labor and it still would be many thousands cheaper BUT the bottom line is "could have should have would have"..... All that matters is your happy with the results. I had over 75K total investment in my old 02, Ed had @50K in yours, and Mike prob had closer to 100K in the one I have now. It's not what you put into it, it's what you get out of it, I wish you much Luck and I'm glad to hear it'll be back up and running shortly

wow

here we are telling you that you are getting screwed, then you bitch because we are backstabing you?

Do us a favor, keep your info off the board untill you can get your stories straight. Then you have nothing to bitch about.

Wha, wha wha.

Go ahead and spend thousands more than you should, go forbid you ask questions to the people charging you money!

And this isn't about the $$$$ ..I really don't care about the $$$$ This happened... would have happened to Rob.. also if he kept driving it.

nice board "I" have here???? WTF??? its your board also buddy,,,,if you havent noticed you have a username,,,,,dont make you much difrent then the rest of us jackazz's.

and to answer "what doesnt everyone get",,,,well for one thing we aint used to seeing carnage like that,,,with a reason for failure like you have.

i guess the only way to describe what some of us on this "nice board we have here" is "cognative disodance" (sp)?
