That said: I waited a long time before I posted for a reason. I have seen your invoices, correspondence/documentation, etc... & watched Naylor/proactions responses. I am not real impressed. It is buisness... just saying that "he would bitch if we gave it to him for free" is not addressing the issue.
What are the issues??? Corrections to fix/agreement???? If they are saying Billy is SOL...??? be a man & say we are standing behind everything & we are done.
Bring everyone back to the main issues, here is what I see... I could have missed a few things... I am not sure.
1. Int. gasket leaked; rocker/lube not correct & water leaking. True/false? Should this be corrected/compensated?
2. Stated/agreed build to be "1100" or "1050" what is it??... motor made 947HP on dyno. True/false?
Should this be corrected/compensated?
3. Motor took double+ the agreed time to make. (even though this is common with race motors)... what is fair??? Here is what was said about that: "JUST BITCHED AND HAD EVER ONE IN THE SHOP NOT WANTING TO WORK ON HIS ENGINE!!!"
4. HERE IS MY QUESTION: If a guy gets a "great deal" or any "free work" does that mean that he should wait double the time, be responsible for workmanship errors, or tolerate less performance???? If so, I WOULD RATHER PAY THE EXTRA 3 GRAND!!!!!! Jeeez... it is a race engine... there are some serious expectations... we are passionate about our rides.
1. True corrected cost was $348.76 I think I should be reimbursed.
2. The agreed build was for 1100+hp on June 28, 2012; TRUE on the dyno the engine made 947 hp have dyno sheets posted; I think I should be compensated for the lack of 153 hp or the necessary work done to engine to bring it to the agreed 1100+hp
3. BITCHED - NO - asked in a professional manor when engine would be finished.
4. NO FREE WORK
Now I think it is Jimmy's turn to reply.
