Brian,

I wish more people understood this, .. seen too many high dollar engine builds
go wrong cause the guy wanted to save $600 and not dyno tune.

Guys, Frank, all, .. REALLY REALLY good thread.
Now with the internet anybody can get on here a slam the heck out of
shop even if the shop didn't do anything wrong, .. and it
could cost people their business, their homes, .. do huge damage just
cause a customer didn't understand something, . . scary times
to be in business.

Kwillymac, I'm wondering after 4 years why are you bringing it up now?
Did you have a tech question?

Well I was just curious what other engine builders thoughts were on this. I recently talked to another engine builder in this area and said in my case he would have made good. He said he has had to do that before. Considering it was broken in on his dyno and the cam went a few weeks after. He is friends with the engine builder that didn't make good. This guy didn't agree with the way it was handled.

I guess it has stuck with me for 4 years because I never recovered and haven't had a car out since. Guess I am still sore. I spent $22,000.00 on that 1968 Camaro in one year and I am still paying for it. I no longer have the motor or car because I tried to pay off some of the debt.
