niiice.. another dishonest #~&^**$ on the forum.

long story short, he sold me his TII block as in good working order (reason for selling is he was planning to put 20b into his fc)

no hard proof if it was properly working or not (maybe partly my fault for not checking but i took the mans word)

engine out, put on pallet and not strapped down for transit, engine arrived with cracked lim, cracked water pump housing and cracked oil press which was only discovered when the engine was finally installed and the oil press unit blew off spewing oil everywhere.
(i wasnt there to take / check delivery of the engine and only found out later)

Grr fed up of coming across so many #~^&£&^ vag*na in the world

Rant over.

Shaun: your tub got rebuilt by ash and there was a crack on back plate so was replaced. ash said was ok, chris said he wasnt happy with the tolerance so i didnt use it in the end. its.. prob just sat in the fc i think.

this is worst than gambling.. at least if go casino gamble.. i have a chance of gettin my money back. with the fc its just.. nothing to show but a heap of crap >.<

Bloomin Eck !

If your setup to use it I\'d just use it till it dies, at least you get some use out of it. I never had a problem with it otherwise I wouldn\'t have even thought about selling it !

Chin up, these cars can get you down, it will come good.

Liam mate, with the amount of cash you\'ve spend on crap engines you could have had yours rebuilt with peripheral porting and warranty! Is it not time to consider buying from a reputable company or having one rebuilt properly? You keep having these set backs and major issues with second hand engines, I know how it is to be a bit hard up on cash and not able to splash out 3k etc, but if you still have the drive to get the FC on the road I would be storing it, saving some cash and doing the engine properly.

Just my 2 cents.
