Walter,
In your post above you very clearly state that you have had a good experiance with Inglese. But, you also state that you are "installing" these parts now. That is where the prblem with Inglese comes in.

When I first bought my system, they were very helpfull in answering my questions, and built a beatiful system! See KIt Car magazine October 2001 (Cover car). My car was a three year build and Mickey personally told me that was not a problem. When I finally got the car ready to fire is when the problems started, both with the car AND Inglese. The car would not run worth a hoot. It literally burned 18 gallons of fuel on the initial start up and break in! This was not a long break in period. Do you know the proper way to break in a cam? I did not have the car running that long and the whole neighborhood smelled like a refinery. Cal Metal and Enzo literally came to my rescue.

I took the jets out, mains and idles. The original numbers were scratched out and new numbers were hand scribed into the side. Give me a break! If Inglese is so CHEAP that they have to redrill the gets what else did they screw up! The jets for goodness sake. They only cost $2.00 each for the correct ones! 2.00 stinking bucks, Hell, I spill more than that at lunch! And why do they ask you to fill out the lenghthy info sheet? It is so they can put the correct parts in your system as each one is differant. Fair enough and good for them, at least they put forth initial effort.

Where my problem come in is when I called to ask question on "Why in the hell did Inglese scratch out the real jet numbers and redrill them to a differant size when the correct ones only cost $2.00 each. It would have not cost Inglese a dime to put in the correct parts to begin with. Yet they paid someone hourly wages to scrath off the numbers and redrill a $2.00 jets. How stupid is that. Mind you, my system cost almost $7,000.00!!!! It was not a cheap set up by any stretch of the imagination! But for a company to lose customers over a $2.00 part! I was treated like a step child that had bought my sytem from someone else. They told me would have to get back with me. To this very day they have NOT ONCE returned a single call. I called repeatedly to no avail. I did get an E-mail from them telling me to "not let anyone Screw up my system" "QUOTE" from Mickey!

I made ONE, let me say that again "ONE" hear me "ONE" call to Cal Metal. I left a message on his vioce mail. He called me back, at his expense and told me what to do and what to look for. I did exactly what he told me to do. I rejetted they system, mains Idles and E tubes. I re calibrated the linkage that was severly off. I reset the Idle & air mixture. Amongst other things and the car would pull you out of the seat. Yes it did turn out ok. This was just what Cal told me to do. Enzo spent an hour on the phone with me, literally talking me one screw at a time which way to turn it and how many turns to turn it. Could you imagine getting to speak with Enzo for an hour! He told me which syncrometer to purchase. Did you get the paperweight Inglese sent you? Enzo tuned my car "OVER THE PHONE", and did one hell of a fine job I might add. He (Enzo) varified the parts and numbers that Cal Metal had suggested and told me (over the phone) how to install them. Enzo and Cal Metal have never asked for a dime although I asked both how much I owed them. NOT ONE DIME! Inglese wants to charge $125.00 to $150.00 an hour to tell you how to fix THIER SYTEM! Can you tell I am pissed off about that!

I do still have the jets and I will take a picture and post it here to prove that I am not making this crap up. If I can get a pic that is clear enough to read.

As I siad, and no amount of talking will ever change my mind!
DO NOT USE INGLESE!
