You are absolutely right! Dean is a good guy. Thing that hurts so bad is i really liked him...I considered him a friend.
Wish this could have ended differently. I never dreamed there was a problem...****ty leakdown led to the whole thing. When you add the whole rollercoaster **** situation up...I don't have two more years to invest. |

mr schmidt,did mr gellner go over price of items on this list,and get your ok prior to doing the work ,as i stated in an earlier post,you get what you pay for,you got good parts,and paid what they sell for,it was ok then,but you complain now,he did not gouge you on the parts,you paid the going rate.he could have sold you,much better parts,at a much higher price,but se sold you what he felt you needed based upon his many years of knoledge based on his experiance.everything he sold you,according to your list,was good and what you needed for these builds.

Seems like a raw deal for everyone. But, if you have brand new motors and think something is wrong why are you taking them apart? If you can't build them yourself why are you taking them apart yourself. Why not let your builder figure it out, or am I missing something here. You throw around part #'s and clearences, but you either know what your doing or you don't. If something isn't right go to the guy you paid to build them not a website to find the problem. I just paid over 20k for my new 540's and can't imagine how dissapointed I would be if this happens to me. But I can assure you I would go to my builder right away and I have full confidence he would make it right. That's why I chose him in the first place. If I was you, I would cut the chit and go back to your builder now. It sounds like he's still willing to help. something doesn't add up here

Here is my build. I'd love to believe he did a whle lot of anything just for me. Where are those thousands he saved me? |
damn this thread has exploded! this is no good.......
i gotta say...its pretty straight up of Mrhorsepower to still offer to help Yankey after all this. this is just a $hity situation all around that IMO shoulda been handled in private before going public. Yankey....you shoulda took the motors back to Gellner brotha. thats how it works. any good engine builder will tell you that its common policy that once someone else has been into that engine....all bets are off. most ,if not all other builders would just tell you that you are 100% on your own once you admitted to tearing them down yourself.....and then went public with accusations without even offering the chance to make it right. swallow your pride and call him...give him a chance to make it right. i know it stings and your pissed...but dont cut your nose off to spite your face in this situation. i dont know what your goal with this thread was....was it just to inform the guys o fthis sight that Gellner is a crook and screwed you over? |

Now let's learn something and quit acting like a bunch of jerkoffs. In the future, do some research before making a senseless statement on a respected forum. |

Call Dean. You two guys can work this thing out. Don't look back, it is time to look forward-------to enjoying the summer of 2012. |
This thread is really getting outta hand. Bottom line here is Schmidt and dean step away from keyboard and chat. Maybe it's a oneoff on the build (which could be possible ) and/or maybe it's something Schmidt did without obviously intending to and whacked his own engines (reversion of some sort). Or a combo of both.
Bring the engine to dean, and what's his I'm sure he will own up to it,and if it's something else then it can only be Schmidt or somebody else that has been involved. I no prolly way easier said then done :ernaehrung004::ernaehrung004::ernaehrung004: |
