I don't even know where to begin, all I can say is I'm really pissed and can't even describe how upset I am w/ the sh!tty quality a business their running.

First off, I ordered the Ported & Polished 2.02 Magnum R/T heads...inspected them today, all they did was take em outta the factory box and clean em up a little and paint em. The insides of the intake and exhaust ports were rougher than sandpaper. And the guy putting this stuff on has done 8 R/T's and knows what the porting of a set of heads are supposed to look like and he says they didn't even go through a machine shop to be machined they look like stock performance heads.

Second, I tell him to send me everything needed to install the heads....gaskets, bolts, timing chain, etc...he sends me no head bolts & no head gaskets.

Third I order the Comp Cams 1.6 roller rockers off his website which state that they come w/ the rockers, studs, & teflon guideplates. Got the rockers, no guidplates and it comes w/ the bolt for the rocker but no studs.

I highly advise anyone who is thinking about buying products from this company to seriously think about what you could be getting yourself into. I dunno if this is a scam he's been running on people like the average joe that he thinks he can send heads and know that they probably won't know the difference between ported and polished heads. No telling how many people have heads on that could've been ported and added alot more HP.

KRC sux and I know they are a small operation but I am NEVER buying anything from that sh!thole again. Sorry if I've offended anyone that may be affiliated w/ this website (of course he's not gonna screw over a well known company like Speedtweaks)...Bernd if you had recieved these heads and been an average guy off the streets you would've blown a fuse. Thats all I have to say.

So your guys done 8 R/T's? Big f*cking deal. How many do you think Marty's done? As for missing parts, stuff happens. Call and deal with the vendor first before you start tearing him a new one in a public forum. Work the problem before you start whining like a baby.

I'm staying out of this one with the exception of one comment:

Yes...I would have been rather "miffed"...but the first thing I would have done is call him.

Can this thread get consolidated back down into one note by killing off 2 of them? Spamming it 3 times on 3 different forums was totally unnecessary - people read more than one board.

Well I just want to apologize for the outburst and the bashing of this company I was just pissed and I should've waited to call first.

But I did call and apparently the heads he took to the Mopar show were the ones that were suppose to be shipped to me...they had 2 sets of heads w/ my name on it, I just got the 1.92 non-ported heads by mistake that were someone elses.

I know these things happen in a business swamped w/ orders & and probably should've known that and kept it to myself but instead I chose to vent. Again sorry for the negitivity I'm sure everyone else that ordered from this company has nothing to worry about.

Only an idiot would try to do mechanic work that complicated. Your outburst of slander is grounds for legal litigation of sueing you for being an idiot. Use professional installation or buy yourself a ugo. Martys mom.

We closed up the shop over 10 years ago. Still
proud of our work. Nobody was perfect but we put
out some fast trucks and had more happy customers
than not.
