Last April (yes almost a year ago) I replied to a post by Stripper Motorsports looking to "borrow" a 6.1 intake to develop a nitrous system for it. I agree to send them my new in the box spare 6.1 intake, and they agree to do the nitrous plumbing for free and make me a deal on the nitrous kit. They also want to CNC the TB and dyno test it, then send me back the CNC TB at no cost to me. Sounds like a good deal to me.
Well I get my intake back less TB and missing parts from the nitrous system.
Missing parts:
TB
2 purge kits
Fuel pressure safety switch
The kit also arrived with high pressure (58 psi) jets and I told them many times I needed low pressure (10 psi) jets. I even talked to Brad a bunch about my fuel system plans, so he knew exactly what I was doing.
After a bunch of calls, emails and excuses I get 1 purge kit.
More calls, emails and excuses gets me the 2nd purge kit.
At this point they wanted a set of CNC 6.1 heads, so as a show of good faith I send them out the heads and let them mail me a check. Well after many calls and emails I finally get a check, and it BOUNCES! Another round of calls and emails and they did cover the check and my cost on the fees.
I still never got the TB, fuel pressure safety switch, or the right jets. For a while they made excuses then just quit returning my calls, emails, and posts online.
After a few months I had to just buy the parts from someone else.
TB $175
Fuel Pressure Safety Switch $40
Nitrous Jets $225
Total $440
If they don't want to reimburse me for what I spent (no I will not take a check) then they can send me the parts and I will use them on another project or something.
