It ended in a big FU contest. If you could see some of the bad *** cars they work on you wouldn't believe they do crap like that.

I don't know if I won but he sure wasn't happy I was screaming about him screwing it up twice in front of his customer. He threatened to call the police if I didn't leave.

I wish I hadn't paid him with cash, if it was on a card I would stop the payment to him.

File a complaint on Yelp for the shop. It's just a little cash to you but he can never live down negative PR on the net

Dood. I just want to commend you for continuing to see this project through. You my friend are the definition of perseverance. You have had many hurdles.

The shop that did my Stillen SC'r has a lot customers with Lambo's & Ferrari's - not to mention the Mercedes and Audi's.
He also has a customer with a Ford GT [not the Mustang GT :-], and another with a McLaren ... they also hand built a custom Ultima GTR.
They had great looking credentials but still my Z got F'd Up.
Not totally their fault [but...?] - it's just seems that you've got to be a Z specialist with a ton of hands on experience +plus+ a proven game plan to avoid / minimize things like this.

Nothing has gone according to plan with my build as well ... I'm in your corner on this one!

Truthfully I owe that to the owner of the shop, I quit all the time and he keeps refusing to let me. I was close today when he said lets pull it all off and look at everything. With in an hour he sent me that pic.

Late last night the shop owner sent me this and said no leaks except a tiny bit that comes out the vortech vent. I know mine has always blown a little oil out the vent but should air come out of it? I'm thinking it's okay because they have the vent there to let pressure out but I'm not sure.

At idle, totally normal!

it's open all the time, Mine had ingested water, over heated and blew:/ I think the vent hole is a dumb design. Completely forgot about that thing. I always thought they was a "check" ball in there. But it's open 100% of time.

BTW that look a lot better :)

We are waiting for the tuner to get free to look at the log but it looks like we are closer. On the same flash as last time the car made 7psi and the most torque it has ever made.

One of these days I am going to drive to Ft Myers just to buy you a beer.

JWillis72 01-08-2016 01:36 PM

Better yet, meet me in Sebring!

JWillis72 01-08-2016 02:05 PM

The car is loud.
