    As soon as you fire it up. you can feel the lines at the radiator. The hot line is coming from the tranny. The other is the return line. It only takes a minute for the line to heat up.

    And can you believe, there were some reading this, that STILL wanted to buy from them???? Poor assembly techniques!!!! You get what you pay for. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!! If you buy anyway, GOOD LUCK If you get ripped, well it's your own fault. Sorry to hear this hasn't resolved itself.

    should I buy it?

    Agree on the lifters and sound. Personally, don't like the non matching exterior/interior paint. Looks like 4 different colors. Stripe, seats, exterior, and dash. For that price, they could of spent a few hundred to match some of the interior. Like the door panels and kick panel. That just...

    After reading about his problems, you're still willing to say give them a chance??? As I said before. This IS the way he does business. Would you want to do business with someone who quits talking with you when you have a problem with their product?? AFTER he has your money. And there is...

    67 mustang i found to restore is it worth it?

    Does he know the price of scrap? He'll pay more to haul it away than what he gets for scrap! $500 is generous. Maybe you'll get lucky, and get more when you part it out! The glass might be original!

    T&L Engines F-up...

    Oh, I reread all the posts. After the reassembly, then second time lifters were toast..... Okay. Now that's on the OP. I still don't buy the BACKWARDS head gasket, though. That goes down to assembly technique. And failure to follow directions. At this point with two head gaskets, lifters...

    You just get a fresh motor from the dyno shop. It's been rode hard and put away wet. Tuned on the dyno for either max performance, or max economy. Max performance assumed. Why would I mess with it at all. I got my motor from the builders more than seven years ago. the valve covers have...

    Again, these wiped lobes are from 'lack of proper additives and lubricants'. They broke it in, dyno'ed it. Didn't they use the proper lube? 1/2 hour break in, three to five pulls to get a carbed street motor dialed in(to 6k rpms no less) And it's gonna wipe a lobe after this? Like I said, the...

    I 've read a lot of problems with T & L. And a few with the EXACT same cam and lifter problem. If this motor has been broke in and dyno'd, how is it going to wipe a lobe now??? It's been supposedly broke in and then flogged on a dyno??? Did he change the oil before he got it? NO reason...

    Tire hitting fender

    I believe you can get taller coil insulator pads Mine also rubbed, with 620 coils and shelby drop. I didn't cut any coils though. If it rubs by just a hair. I went with Edelbrock IAS shocks and picked up the front by just enough. I did have new gas-a-just on there.

    Man this guy went sucks all the way. Just go to the Incubus site and there are plenty of nice rims than the POS's he's got. Hmmm... $295 per rim including tires. What a bunch of crap. And that's RETAIL!! I wouldn't give $2k for it. You've got to redo everything he's done. Even the paint is...

    Big Brother Program!!

    x2 on the ask first! Runs along the line 'it's cheaper to fix it right the first time' Especially when funds are tight. location? Help might be closer than you think. Don't get frustrated, these cars are very simple to maintain, once you got it all squared away.
