Got Her Back!!!!

Well after a stressfull couple of weeks I got my truck back Sunday. I got really lucky though and Timinva really went above and beyond the call to take care of me. I was simply getting new injectors, cam , springs, and CP3, and found out my truck was close to complete meltdown. Tim did a great job finding my valve seats were leaking and close to dropping, got it machined new seats pressed in new head gasket, and fixed a ton of other problems I had due to other installers working on my truck. Don at F1 went out of his way to fix my injectors that were mangled by another installer, and all the while he and Tim's main concern was getting my truck perfect. In a world where the first thing out of peoples mouths is ussually it will cost you x amount of dollars to fix this its great to see their are still some good guys out there that care about what they do and money is not the only goal. So thanks to this site for helping me find great quality installers,vendors, and thanks to Tim and Don for all your help.
I will post about the bennifits of my cam, cp3, and Flux 3's after I get some more drive time. Rye...

Nice Post

Nice to see some complimentary posts. One of the things I like so much about this site is the number of folks that seem to take pride in their work and go out of their way to do what is right.

Keep up the good work and Merry Christmas to all!

18,000 miles. Well it was most certainly built on a Friday . In talking with Tim, the guy at the machine shop said I acctually had some intake valve seats that were loose, and it is my understanding that it is ussually the exhaust valve seats that go first. That being said I had exhaust valve seats that were loose as well. Go fiqure, as I said must have been built on friday. The overall opinion is my head and valves were a little flawed from the factory, and then the fact my injectors were not flowing anywhere close to each other probably aided in the destruction of the exhaust seats. ( some were flowing 200ml one was over 500 , another over 300.) Not good. So all in all Im guessing it was the combination of a few things, Im just very lucky we caught it in time and Tim took care of it all.

I cant be angry at anyone but myself, Ive had too many people touch my truck and thats not a good thing (just alot of downloader shops that talk a big game but arent capable of doing any real quality work). Its cost me some money but the important thing is my problems were caught, and solved. Hey Im just happy it didnt cost me an engine. Ive found a great installer, and performance guru in Timinva, and I have top of the line parts in my truck now. I should write a visa commercial.Priceless

Its good to hear that there are still decent people in this world. I'm glad yall were able to catch those problems before they caused major damage. I live in Currituck NC just south of the Va line and I've heard Tim is top notch. Good work guys.
