They did do some good things but the responsible thing to do would be to stop taking orders when the ship is sinking. A lot of people got screwed because of that alone.
I wouldn't go that far. I am amazed that Scotty cared for his customers so much he gave 40k of his own money to the company to keep his customers and make sure they got their engines hoping the owner would work things out. That shows how he really loved this group.
You are correct, but you can't blame them. They have gone above and beyond to help people especially when they were not getting a paycheck, yet forking over 40 grand of his own money to pay for customers parts/engines,etc. That says a lot about their character.They did do some good things but the responsible thing to do would be to stop taking orders when the ship is sinking.

I think you have to consider the wait time for builds, mine was 2-3 months but that was 2 years ago, about a year ago builds were taking more than 6 months. So if you factor in the last 2 months the stuff went right down the tubes there's nothing jim or scott could've done for orders already placed before that 2 month periodThey did do some good things but the responsible thing to do would be to stop taking orders when the ship is sinking.

What I don't understand is how I placed a build order at the beginning of August and got the engine last weekend when some people have been waiting since January and now may not get anything.
I had issues when I went to pick up the engine, VTCED wouldn't let me have it because VT Engines hadn't paid for it yet. But - between Scott, VTCED's owner, and myself we managed to get everything sorted out and I did get my engine.. I think I was one of, if not, the last person to get their build..
I just got the car back together last night and it's running wonderfully so far...

Don't bother, VT does the stuff for MPH. Curious to see what they will do now.
+1 on paypal sucking donkey balls, they screwed me out of ~$500Yeah that will be the only way to do it, Paypal is a huge scam. There are many write-ups on the internet about people getting screwed over by them....shady organization if you ask me.

I am sure there is a lot that we still don't know.
no they dont...
Yes you can blame them...
What about the lies told to customers? I am referring to the one that was told by VT that his motor was shipped to the wrong address but in reality never left VTCED. The fact that they were lying to customers as well as trying to hide the situation is deceitful and that does go against their character and you can blame them for that...
I am talking about the ENTIRE PROBLEM being put on Jim and Scott. It is not all their fault, they are not VT Engines. I bet some of you all would still ****** if they jumped ship back in April leaving 27 people out to hang, yet they stayed and only 8 engine's out of 49 are still there.
How do we know that they lied? Who is to say that VTCED didn't screwed up the shipping and lied to them? It is not like Scott and Jim worked next to them.
Yes, lets believe VTCED. Afterall they are 100% correct right?
Like others on MF, and MD have said, you seem to have a personal grudge towards Scott and Jim.
however, someone was lying for sure and i dont know who it was.
Haha, another SD Wheeler comes out of the woodwork.
Long time no see Winters
I actually have DTA "P & P" heads on my car to this day. I'm one of the few who got them. Shortly after DTA went bellyup, my auto shop (Jade Performance) did also.
yes, im the customer that was told my block was shipped to the wrong address and was being sent back to them and being shipped out that same it got back to them. this was said by scott. i called vtced and they said the engine was never shipped and was sitting right in front of him waiting for payment from vt so he could ship it.
either scott or jim (i forget which) addressed me im, and stated that that is only what vtced was telling them.....why vtced would do such a thing i dont know?
however, someone was lying for sure and i dont know who it was.
all i know is if vt is has nothing left i have no engine and no money.
