Can you say if it wasn't wesco? Dave is one of the only honest men in this business. If it was wesco I think you are full of chit, that's how strong I feel about him. So I guess at this point I will just think your full of chit until you tell me otherwise

Glad to see you got the parts without an action movie. The rest is ice cream.

Since you are getting paid by customers and running a business.........then, you no longer qualify for use of the swap shop which is for individuals.

Hi
My name is Dave Wesseldyk owner of Wesco Racing Engines.

Early in September Scott droped two short blocks off at my shop.

September 29th the short blocks where disassembled.

November 7th pistons where removed from the rods.

The next week I called Scott told him what we found and asked him to stop by and look at his parts.He told me he was very busy at work and would not be able to get there before 5:00.I told Scott I'm in my shop from 9am to 9pm seven days a week.

Some time in the next week Scott stopped down to the shop I showed Scott the bad crank I measured the block's with him standing right there.Scott wanted to get the parts himself to save money.He didn't like that the cranks where mismatched.One block was .030 over size I told Scott we can use the .030 pistons in the other block and get one new set.When Scott left he was not sure what he wanted to do rebuild or buy something else. Scott never dropped off any parts for us to work with.

December 13th seven weeks later Scott showed up at my shop looking for me.My nephew told Scott Dave is out of town at the PRI show and will be back tomorrow.Scott seen his blocks sitting on carts. Scott demanded his parts right now and tried to intimidate my nephew into letting him have them.Scott was told nothing leaves this shop with out Dave OK.Scott then had a temper tantrum and stormed out.

First Scott tries to take his parts with out paying thats steeling from me.

Second Scott gives My nephew a hard time in my shop.I will not tolerate that from anybody.

Yes I was MAD.

December 14th Scott walks in to my shop I started yelling at Scott until he ran out the door.The same day Scott starts lying about me on OSO .

December 16 Scott payed his bill and took his parts.



I have been in this business for for over 20 years Scott is the first guy that I have run out of my shop.

It's to bad it happened.


Dave



If any one has any questions my cell is 616-308-5119

O and the post about my name was one of the funniest post I have seen on OSO.

I guess that answers my question. You may be the first person I've ever heard of having a problem with him. He won't be on here to defend himself because he works 7 days a week and isn't real good with computers. Also it's not blind loyalty, actually he built two motors for me that we're perfect from day one. Maybe I will call him tomorrow and get the real story and let everyone know
