Would you run these in your engine?

First of all I did not mention you or slam your name on the forum. You can clearly see that despite numerous requests to out you I did not and gave you ample time to come to a reasonable agreement. YOU said that you would refund me $300 and send me a new set of valves. We agreed that was acceptable, but yet you did not send the refund or parts.

I posted these pictures/topic on the forum to determine weather or not I was indeed expecting too much from you and these heads. I wanted to get a non-biased opinion. And second, if these were indeed a set of heads that you received on a trade from someone else then it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to make sure they are a good product if you are going to turn around and sell them!

Why in gods name would ANYONE put a set of questionable heads on a rare and vintage engine? Warranty or not, if the heads did fail.....would your warranty cover all the other damage that could have occurred? Plus the time to pull fix and rebuild the engine afterward?

Bottom line is that you got caught trying to make a buck on a set of, as you claim, traded in heads. When we called you out on the fact the heads were not as advertised you did a half ass job to repair them hoping that I wouldn't know what I was looking at or talking about. You even tried to bad mouth my engine builder and said that "he was trying to get money out of me and didn't know what he was talking about."

You were more interested in making a dollar off me than actually providing me with a quality product. Now if these heads were cheap then maybe I would understand “you get what you pay for,” but at $2000 I would have expected these to be in the condition you originally advertised them in.

The proof of your questionable work is in this thread through the multiple comments from these members, the ones you slam as being experts that should go into business for them selves. These forum members have provided me with better service and answers to my questions than you certainly have and I haven’t paid them for their business! I cannot believe that you have the audacity to tell off these forum members who I am sure at one time or another were, or were considering, to be one of your customers.

You own a business, people PAY YOU to do what they cannot or do not want to do them selves. When you fail to deliver a quality product it is not the customers fault for complaining/questioning it is his right. Weather or not he is correct is the question, and from the looks of these pictures and comments on all the other threads from other "PAYING CUSTOMERS" I was right to question your work.
