The site itself was sorta fizzling so I quit going on there, I just find it humorous reading what he says , Smitty

Yeah, I remember that thread. It was an excellent thread. It really showed how bad the factory fittings and hoses are. It's one of those things that most people don't know or think to even check until their engine is toasted.
I was just being stupid. I meant that he should have at least thanked you if he was going to steal your pics and story.

He saw this in the pictures I posted in "my oil problems from stock hardware" thread that I posted on here years ago and then ASKED me to post it on serious offshore before he became a pariah around here!!! I guess its not a lie though, he DID see it, just it was in MY pictures I posted, LMAO, Smitty
I was just thinking the same exact thing. I am very familiar with that post being that I read it about 6 times and took your advise to the T.

The comments under his "story" are getting better, his fan club must have caught up:
"Apache RACING
Sunkin is my hero, he saved a family of RATS from a engine room fire while driving to a charity even after being ejected from a real race boat all in the same DAY!! He then went on to single handedly collect charity funds directly into his own pockets and was gracious enough to pull cash right out these same pockets and buy rounds of drinks for all his good friends while he enlightened them with his VAST knowledge!! Everyone just absolutely loves and praises his expertise , the only naysayers are the children's charity foundation who he bounced the check to that had to sue him to get paid, other than that, WOW, he's THE MAN."

Looks like they removed the "negative" comments about the con man named Chris Sunkin from the comments section. LOL

All the negativity around Sunkin aside, it really isn't that great of an article.

Sunkin would be better off posing as a snake handler in a Pentecostal church in the Appalachia backwaters. I apologize if there are and Pentecostal snake handlers viewing this post.
