I agree. I would find it difficult to be impartial if I had to file a lawsuit and win a court judgement in order to get the defendant to honor their contract to deliver quality parts in a timely manner.
The main point that I'm trying to make is that a certain unknown % of Cammer heads had porosity issues dating back years. And Damage had an engine built in late 2014 with Coon Cammer heads that had porosity issues.
I'm not a metallurgist, so here's my question. If Damage's engine builder took delivery of Cammer heads from Mr. Coon and then subsequently the engine builder built the heads for a Damage's Cammer engine, is there somewhere in that entire process where porosity is checked?
I do realize that the Cammer chain drive broke and that the engine builder felt "less than satisfied" using it in his engine, but that's what was available at the time. The counter to that position is that if you feel uncomfortable sending something out the door, then you shouldn't send it out the door.
