Default My cracked head ( again ) and OT: my new Puppy dog

UPDATE : EVERYTHING Plus some has been taken care of , free of charge , the head was Not crcked , my dump tube was touching my rad and burned a hole in it ,
But the shop handled everything the right way , and im happy to say that im still a friend , and customer of theirs , for all who know who does my work , then know that they mad4e right on the little things , and they always do , if you have no clue what im talking about , then just dont worry ,
I dont want to put names out there , but you ( most who know me ) know what shop . thanks again M*LL*R - yea man , i still love ya


my car has a broken head , again , somehow the welds opened up inside the casting
tomorrow i will get mor in detail with this when i see it with my own Eyes ,

The work was done by a reputable shop in the Northeast , and im sure they plan on fixing this at THEIR expense , as i diddnt cause this , i already paid for this to be fixed , and it was , poorly .
Im gonna hold backl with the specific name of said shop , because if they make good on this then there isnt a problem ..
So this is Waayyyyyy OT , but i am going to put some pics with my R and the doggy , just the car is not currently at my house
But , my car hs a broken head , again , somehow the welds opened up inside the casting

The other day i fell in love , again ,
here is Enzo , 9 week old Chocolate Lab , Hope You Likes






Mods : i know this is off topic a little , but i am going to put the pictures of my cracked head in here as well . i will be posting them tomorrow ( monday ) when the shop is open

Yeah , well i wouldnt mind the oil , as long as i diddnt have to stop to put water in , and now with sub 32 degrees , im not shelling out for coolant every day

But the car dosent even move with this crack , if it burned a lil coolant , and/or oil , but boogied , id be alright with it ,
Dont get me wrong , before the crack , and even after it was fixed , it was MOVING ,
But
1)Theres the litle things that i want and need done , that dont/diddnt gt done ,
2) once the weld started opening up gradually it got slower , and i also graduially had to add more water , so i knew what was happening .

I dropped it off thursday , So we will se what the word is .

The thing is , i really Like these guys as friemds , i have known most of the employees before i moved away from here (5 Years ago ) and back.
They do Amazing work , and if i posted some of the work you guys wpuld agree .
Aside from the work , they are good people , and i dont think its personal , or that they WANT to screw me around .
Im pretty sure thats not whats up.
Ill see whats going on tommorrow and ill fill you guys in .

That dog is really cute, I've always loved chocolates. That second one with his eyes closed tight and his lip stuck out is hilarious!

Ok we'll see what happens... I really wish you lots of luck, because these things can just happen out of the blue. Btw, nice doggie! What happened to the blind one? I bet my daughter will love that chocolate lab.
