friend is buuilding an lsvtec andi have been ushering him in the correct direction. he gets the block back the first time and i am torqueing the head down with arp headstuds for him. well one of them wont torque past 24 ftlbs. so i pull it out nad sure enough, that hole is stripped out.
he looks like he is about to cry and i assure him it is fixable. and it is. its called a heli-coil. or a machine shop tap and die set. well he drops it off at the twenty-nine palms BAR AUTO DISMANTLING MACHINE SHOP and they say theyll take care of it. i was not present when it was dropped off. the machine shop got a CHEVY HEADSTUD and just cross threaded it into the hole and called him the next day to pick it up.
he brings the thing home and my jaw hit the floor. i knew exactly what it was. i said "thats out of a ******* 350!!!"
i immediately call BAR and inform them i am going to report them to the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU of which they are a member. they are done.
now what i ask of you people is this. call them and ask for random machining tasks on your honda engine. anything. head milling, block assembly, completel engine assembly. see what they say. they will wonder why they are getting inundated with honda calls. hahahahaha

Thats a funny story. Good luck getting anything usefull from the BBB though. I once had a shop turn a $150 repair into a $700 repair and when I went to the BBB all I got was a letter from the shop saying my claims were ridiculous.

This thread is making me miss my HatchBox more and more. It pisses me off to think this time 2 years ago i was in town to get it painted start, my last prep before i was going to start autoX/road racing it in my spare time. And a 18yr old Kid in a durango took it all away cause he wasn't paying attention to me stopped at a red light!
I love my 4dr but it's not the same....

when asked why he waited this long he replied,
"i was afraid my dad would kick me out of the house."
so far his employment at dAng! shop has not been in jeopardy. when some of his co-workers were questioned the common answer was,
"i just always thought he was a really nice guy. never really took his advances seriously."
this, coming on the heels of the passing of gerald ford is one of the latest "coming out" tales and certainly one of the more suprising.

i wanna see what they say
cause they never made a 83 vette
I like calling auto parts store and asking then how much like say plug wires for a 96 maxima are...they dont have them.
usually theyll look thru catalogs for a couple minutes or the computer and they come back on the phone and say um we aint got a listing for them
