Dear God.....
I'm not worried, honestly. I KNOW how many happy customers come out of GTM, how many insane, crazy high-HP builds that come out of that shop. I see that place in person and I know Sam and his crew knows what they are doing.

This is also why I get EVERYTHING done at the same shop, from initial tuning, to teardown & inspection, to built motor, to cams, to . . . more tuning.

IMHO if some shyte came up Sam would take care of it for me.

I'd like to compared the number of supposed "failures" of GTM motors against the number of "successes."

If my shyte messes up, I will let the boards know.

If my shyte works, works well, and works well for a long *** time, I will also let the boards know.

Peace

must be S.O.P. for MRC to threaten you with lawsuits and legal action...i've already been threatened twice....and I was the customer.

God do I want to post up so bad but now is not the time

I have known about what was going on for a while but Julian was keeping it under wraps untill now.

The two shops agreed on a third shop to evaluate the motors and determine the cause of failure. Motors all built by the same shop started showing up broken one after the other.

People(that you all know) on this board have been effected. They likely won't speak up as long as this is resolved by GTM, and being a responsible shop I am sure they will live up to the agreement they made (whatever shop was found to have messed up would cover the bill for the repair).

On a brighter note, Dyno day at MRC Saturday

We are still waiting on the inspection report to come back from the 3rd party independent inspection. We have been in a complete communication with them and the customer. We will have an answer as soon as all facts presented .
