Hmm - Another seller with over 400 posts and not a paid member.

[/ QUOTE ] My membership just expired and because people like yoursel speak without thinking I may not rejoin.O h great a 3 post paid member with all the truth ,Here is the deal on his block,I listed a 512 block on ebay that sold ,He contacted me and wanted to buy the block if my buyer did not pay because he could re stamp it to match his car ( yes he is a restamper and this all happened over a year ago ) but I informed him it was sold ,He asked me to help him find one and I ran across one and called him with the numbers off the block, He told me he wanted it and he sent the money so I went and bought it for him, He then wanted me to have it maged and cleaned after I bought it for him,I went ahead and out of my pockett had it checked and cleaned,I gave him the phone number to the engine shop where I took it, The machine shop told him all looked ok, I shipped him the block, 1 week later he called complaining of a scratch in the cly wal on one of the cyls ,He said he didnt have the $ to buy a sleeve so I at my exspense bought and shipped him one,Another week went buy and he called again and said the main caps were wrong so I went to the engine shop and asked him what was wrong he said he doubted it but that he may have mixed them up with the other block he had of someone else,so John returned his and the machine shop gave me the others to ship him at my exspense,Now a week later he calls again and said the caps were wrong and the block had hard block in it (I had never heard of hard block and have to this day haavent seen any)Once again I went to the machine shop and asked about the mains and the hard block ,The owner told me he had checked the mains when he magged the block and there were correct he also said the hard block would not hurt the block because the new engines are cast that way ,I also went back to the person that had the engine and questioned them about the mains and hard block they said the mains were 100% correct and they had ran the block with the hard block with no problems because the hard block was just at the very bottom of the water jacketts,I did all I could for this guy and will not be jerked around any more , I f your gona bitch about something you ask someone to buy for you then go buy it yourself ,And this is my last comment on this subject!
