why do i have a feeling the block he's going to get isn't going to be a DSS block.
and we have a chance to bet on how quick he runs into a problem(once he gets the car back) and wants to take it back.

and who ever bet on wednesday, it's looking slim, but the day is still young.lol

my nick name should be the stangnet bookie lol

Damn come back from a 5 day hiatus and this thread is still going. Guess one the guys working on your car scored a DSS block. I would question whether or not the motor you bought is in the car. The suckiest part is it's gonna run like **** because it's untuned. So you wait 2 years only for the car to stall 30 times on the way home. My car overheated then the battery went dead from starting it over and over from stalling. Good luck man but it doesn't sound good.

so far donjohn, stunner6910, 17yrOldStanger, and 5.0 GT kid have lost there bets. fellas i only take cash

and we have CobraSVT95 on for monday 9/13/04.

so from now till sunday is still open, min. bet is 20 bucks.
then i have from tuesday the 14 till the day before his 21st birthday is open. sorry guys someone already took his 21st b-day.

and on the bet that he doesn't get a DSS block pays out 3 fold. but i have that he doesn't get it. so who ever wants to bet that he does, you could make triple your money.

i'm also thinking about have to see if it stalls before he gets home. how many times does he stall, how many blocks from the shop does he stall. (who ever bets within the first 5 blocks,hint good pay out)

i also have what day will he stop posting on stangnet.

so gentleman make your bets.

i have to much time on my hands.

yea i did misread urs, i thought u said he got it back. anyways, no more bets for me... there are too many things going on that we don't know about, and neither does 5lrstang. although that's why it would be a good bet, i'm out

good things come to those who wait....... also not a good idea to do burnouts that soon with a brand new motor

Ha, burnout will be fine. The only reason why it's taking so long is the dude has been driving it around.

lets hope not!!!

Dude seriously make sure those asswipes didn't take parts (rotating assembly out of your car). I can't imagine that it could take that long. I would seriously check the motor over and over again b4 I left the shop to make sure it was what you gave them. I serioulsy would be highly worried about what you really are getting. Sorry you gotta go through that ****. This guy is working you write him a check and as soon as you leave drive straight to the bank to cancel it. That's what you should do. Then tell him to take you to court or discount the work at $25 per day for rental car that you needed ;-) and whatever else you can come up with.
