Recommendation for engine builders in North Texas area..
 

I’m looking for someone to pull and rebuild a 454 to 450hp only…Any recommendations?


Thanks

What is the 454 currently? Rectangle ports? Carb?
How many hours on the bottom end?

Those are the first question the builder is going to ask.

Thanks

Its a sock 454 mag and carb... Hrs are unkown at this time and the motor has a rod knocking.

Second question the builder is going to ask, "How much money do you have?" We need to calculate how fast you can go.

Very knowledgable and super helpful too!

Can they really charge you a Creit card fee like that? I've never seen that before. I beleive thats agaist merchent card holder agreement.

As far as I know they can give you a discount for cash but not a up charge for credit card.

In Texas it’s against the Law. Derebery Performance in Dallas tried to charge me a CC fee a few years ago and they lost a sale and customer because of it. It’s also against merchant card holder agreement.

§ 339.001. IMPOSITION OF SURCHARGE FOR USE OF CREDIT
CARD. (a) In a sale of goods or services, a seller may not impose
a surcharge on a buyer who uses a credit card for an extension of
credit instead of cash, a check, or a similar means of payment.
(b) This section does not apply to a state agency, county,
local governmental entity, or other governmental entity that
accepts a credit card for the payment of fees, taxes, or other
charges.

Amended by Acts 1999, 76th Leg., ch. 62, § 7.18(a), eff. Sept. 1,
1999.

They can charge you whatever they want. You can refuse to pay the fee and they can refuse to accept your credit card. Simple as that. Why should Derebery have to eat 3% because you don't have the cash to pay for services?
