    My wonderful adventure with Canton Racing Products.

    Let me know how your windage tray and everything fits. Im curious if a 306 will have half the problems my 347 did. And let me know if the drilled holes are also off center as **** or if whoever was working the day my parts were built was drunk as hell

    My wonderful adventure with Canton Racing Products.

    Didnt bother. their tech dept. didnt seem too knowledable. Called them once. they didnt have much for answers, to one of the simpler of the the problems i was having so why even bother. The place i ordered the parts from might spread the word to them and thats fine by me. Im not even...

    Ran Kid Over

    his wheel was probably already bent. i hope he breaks both his arms, and dies. do not, DO NOT give them a dime if anything, YOU should get money to fix your car. if you were only inching up, they could have easily easily avoided you its nothing but a scam.
