Default In reply to to the comments made on my for sale thread.

To Scott (smiley) and those also making accusations on my for sale thread.

I sadly didn't have the time to reply before the thread was closed (admin please post this to my thread if it is more suitable to be placed in there).

I don't bad mouth anybody on a public forum nor reply to negative comments, but to disgrace me, my business, and my customer is bang out of order!!! and to use the language that was.

The original owner, the seller, has contacted Scott and is sorting this out.


But to set a few facts straight.
comments from the seller:

In 1995 Julian was paid 7.5k to turn the engine from 500 to 650 (includes new T6 ecu and mapping) and he has all the receipts including dyno results to prove it made 649. To suggest that this is not true, and that the head is crap and will only ever make 500 at most, and that I am selling rubbish, is suggesting that Julian has lied, and the fact that Julian is one of the best engine builders around is beyond belief. It then sat until I collected the shell and the engine to restore the car.

I have been open and honest on all information from the original owner, the seller, and provide copies of dyno prints and bill of materials, and to accuse me of lying on an open forum is out of order.

If there are any issues or mistakes, the seller has been in contact with you to resolve them (left you a voice message) and you have the sellers details. Please can you no longer accuse me of things that aren't true.

Thanks
Mathew

I agree mate. Problem is very few Tuners can make 650 with that Spec head. Julian is one & Mark is another. Problem is the PF mafia don't like being told facts & I see the thread was closed as soon as I agreed with you. Its the way it is on here jumped up experts who have not got a clue.

I think sometimes if the information didn't originate on PF it can't be true according to some

Thank you rob.

I happy to discuss any issues and resolve any problems with anybody. I am very passionate about what I do, and as it all part time I have to give up a lot of my free time and being with my wife to do what I do, and be openly disgraced and abused is not nice.

I hope that the matter is closed (forum wise) and the seller and Scott can resolve any issues personally.

I'm glad we managed to finally get a response and potential refund for the poor victim.

PF at its best - community spirit is not lost on here

Exactly Rod might of cleared up that it is possible to do the bhp but the head was originally advertised as new and Rs 500 head so just on that I would want my money back then the inlet ports sizes going 26-29 mm and not in complete shape either so I could care less if the head was ported by colin chapman I wouldnt want it

Nobody can aruge it was a blatant lie about the amount of previous use.

Plus the scammer has shown zero acknowledgement that HE is responsible for an advert HE posted, irrespective of the fact it was for his 'mate' (which is also against the rules for a very good reason).

Lets hope the refund is very quick at coming through. The fact it took a thread calling him out to respond is VERY telling

He named 2, didn't say that they were the only ones. But they are 2 that specialise in the small exhaust port builds.
