This whole thread/topic has been very interesting. I had a 2 hour conversation with Bill on Tuesday and he bent my ear about all the details of his dealings with the engine builder in Tucson. In my opinion, Bill has been nothing but a gentleman throughout this whole process. I have yet to hear any statements from Larry's Engine & Marine to contradict any of Bill's statements/concerns. Until then I have no reason but to believe everything that Bill has told me. Bill has not posted anywhere near all the "dealings" he had on this motor build/shipment. My advice, Bill, post all the details and let Larry respond.
Personally I believe that this whole thing could've been avoided if only the responsible party would've returned Bills calls, and made good on their mistake of how the engine was crated. It's clearly not Bills fault that there were issues about the crating that led to broken parts on the engine. Bill paid more than good money to have the engines crated properly, and they were not. Any reputable builder would've returned his calls and made good on the mistakes made by their employees. Not denied fault, called his wife a liar, refused to speak with Bills son about some technical info he inquired about, because Bill Sr. was the one that bought and paid for the engines. It's all just a poor call of business ethics. I could'nt even imagine treating a customer like that, especially after the tens of thousands of dollars that Bill spent with them.

That's what I was talkin about in my last post. So far, I hav'nt heard anything from the engine builder, only other people that are sticking up for him. What's wrong with that picture ???

There is no use to say much else in the fact that RunninHot has many friends on here and it wouldn't do much good. Larry does not "refuse calls", but when you call 10 times a day, he needs to call you back.
Anyone who called Pinky a liar is wrong, and should not have said it if they did....
That was Bill"s engine stand......
Does anyone remember the thread about Bill's boat being fixed at Skater??? He threw Skater under the bus too.

[QUOTE=40FlatDeck;2809317]I was trying to respond for Larry since he will not. I don't see him on the computer anytime soon, and since I hooked these two up I feel some what responsible.

He stands by his motors 100%
It was wrong to ship with one bolt.
If somebody told Pinky to shut up, it was wrong.
But I believe they are making it right. All I asked was a little patience.
It is tough to write back to you DareDevil. I don't believe you can read, let alone post.

Why do get personal ???? My english is not the best . SORRY
Still even though he tries to make it right,,,is probable because u told him too ,,,i don't and did not see any reason why he even NOT returned the first call.
And if i would be boss,,,,i would fire the guy who packed and called Pinky a liar even if it was the best guy i have !!!
By the way its not about my reading or posting skills !!!
But whatever.
