thats all you are saying? :rolleyes: cause in the quotes below seems you are saying MIKE himself said shit. You yourself need to let the whole shit go, along with mike but if you keep bringing shit from OTHER situations into it, than i dont blame him for continuing.

sorry vteckidd, but you've had the same screen name for a while & it was you who the conversation was with...i don't remember the specifics of it because it was 2 years ago...my only point in bringing that up was the you do not know everything there is to know about a damn engine or performance so please stop acting like you do. i'm not going to argue with you about this any more...the last few posts i've made were in regards to the shit-talking that i have seen on this thread, as well as the deleted one. i'm done...i know the motor ran perfectly fine when it was pulled, i don't know what could have or what apparently did happen to it between the time it was pulled & the time you installed it, but obviously something messed up. phantom_hatch's unwillingness to give you back the money is between you & him, not me & all of ia, because once again, the only point i've stated throughout this whole situation is the fact that the engine ran fine when it was pulled...that is all! :)
your wrong, there was never a thread about that.
I have NEVER said i know everytihng, but when someone tries to question my knowledge, when they obviously have NO CLUE WHAT THEY are talking about, i will make it clear where you stand.
I do not know everything, i learn something new every week. if i didnt, i would have stopped this along time ago.
however, i do know i was scammed, and i do know phantom hatch is a scammer.
i know more than you, and in my professional opinion, the motor was fucked up by HIM before it got to ME . so it was not GREAT. and since you dont know anything about an engine, you are in NO POSITION to tell me that it ran "great" cause it doesnt now, and you cant explain why.
i can tell you it ran great because i lived with him when the motor was in the car...i saw it run every day & it never smoked. once again, i told you i don't know about the internals, but i am not just some dumb female who can't tell the difference between a motor that runs fine & one that's messed up.
obviously you are, cause its fucked up, exsplain to me how it fucked up.
oh you cant.
move along please, this thread has eclipsed your knowledge
oh wow, this is the last time i will repeat myself...i don't know how it may have messed up!!! i'm not claming & i haven't claimed to have any knowledge about that!
just some more information... you yourself say you know little to almost nothing about internals?
K then drive my car, the motor is beyond FUCKED but to you it can run perfectly fine considering it doesnt smoke, nor make noises, but being the driver, it is VERY noticable considering I know a good from poorly running motor internally.
I can EASILY sell it and say it runs just fine, doesnt smoke, but would be bold face lying unless it was broken down right then and there to prove me wrong.
and thats MY POINT , which she doesnt get , nor will she ever get.Quote:

great for you :rolleyes:
THE DRIVER/ OWNER that knows shit about internals is what i am saying, not that you never drove the car. saying you can drive mine right now, and will NEVER be able to know that it is completely fucked. take it out and bust it open, its going to be where the one he sold mike is now... trashed.
I think what he's trying to say is: The damage that was done to the motor could NOT have happened while it was sitting there. The type of damage the motor has happens while its running.Quote:

Your friend is untrustworthy, and conducts bad business transactions. Its immature to sell damaged goods and mislead your customers. I can completely understand why Vteckidd is upset and saying what he's saying.
EDIT: Scrappy is completely right.The possiblity exists that you were unable to tell if the internals of the motor ran fine or not. You yourself have stated you know nothing about internals, you only want to say, it "ran fine when it was pulled"
That is your opinion and observation that is based on lack of knowlege that you have admitted to. So, do you really want to continue this back and forth, back and forth? Or can you consider that YOU don't know what you are talking about, realize and understand what WE are trying to explain to you, and accept these things as fact. The point of this tread was to warn people of the possiblity of being scammed by your friend, not for an all out bash fest. As far as Vteckidd's knowlege of motors, it far exceeds many that I know. His phone constantly rings with people asking questions, pm boxes are full, and he's been imed so many times, it's ridiculous. He has a very good reputation of knowing motors, building cars, etc. Like someone said he has respect on this board, many others, as well as in the ''scene". He is not, by far, the most experienced or knowlegeable person about cars but he learns from the greatest in the industry and experience. However, what he does know, he knows it well. His judgement needs not to be questioned. I'm glad I listened to him when it came to the motor in my car. Mike is a fine businesman, and conducts honest business. Your friend, however, did not. Mike even tried to be nice by giving him 20 extra bucks for delivery. Regardless if it wasn't enough, the gesture shows a lot about mike's character. Your friend not refunding PARTIAL money on a misrepresented motor, sold with the with severe problems shows a lot about his character or lack thereof.
uh oh... ^ thank you someone else helping us explain this out...

oh, as for valuable contributions; this thread has been a game of ping pong the whole time. while i agree that the engine wouldn't just magically start smoking and was probably bad when pulled, all of this banter is going nowhere. the same points have been made over and over, and yet there is still no resolution to the issue at hand. the thread still remains and people can read it and formulate their own opinions on the seller's ethics (or lack thereof), but going back and forth isn't going to do anything as everyone is going to remain hard-headed on the matter.
agreed, if you want you can lock it and sticky it, or just lock it, cause i doubt ill ever see and apolagy or reimbursement from the kid
And on that note......LOCKED.Quote:
