that is untill they put ure tans in and didnt tighten down all the TA bolts and it damn near fell off. Just my .02 Or put 3 different size bolts to mount the flex plate, and ground down the flex plate, prob was nice and ballanced after that.

sure i typed on my phone but still not that hard to understand. When they put my buddy's trans in they (don't know who exactly did the work) did a halfass job on it all. Not gonna sit here and totally bash um but hes never going back.

Verdad Gallardo ^They are human beings and make mistakes just like everyone else does. Mike H., Nick, and the other guys there are great people to deal with period. If they make a mistake or did something wrong they have no problem fixing or repairing an issue. They have been excellent and CONSISTENT with me thats why I go there and will continue too. A busy shop for sure though but hey in the end its all worth it
-My message to Mike H. Hopefully he chimes in!
-My message to Mike H. Hopefully he chimes in! it wasn't a mistake, you don't mistakingly use mismatched bolts and file out 2 flexplate bolts on accident, forgot to tighten the torque arm bolts SURE. And not knowing how to get a th4000 with a TB to go into reverse is just a lack of knowledge. Im not gonna argue the point, facts are facts and i guess one car slipped through the cracks there with quality, it happens.
Anyways... good numbers on the car SPAZ.. killer TQ numbers!

I'm happy with the tq #'s, but i think we can squeeze out a few more with a locked out distributor and some extra timing.
LOL that thing is sick. I was there with my dad.

Straight Straightline I own that Camaro with Spazman...I am only going to say it once. We have had a lot of work done at Straightline. First Paulie then Nick. All work has been top notch and as promised with no problems. If you had a problem and did not let them know they can't help you. I will go back and keep my racer "badassed as they can make it" Draggin10's

im suprised nobody wants to side bet....*publicly at least* ive recieved pm's asking for side bets on my car, but no public ones yet.......
on a sidenote-
As a former employee to Straightline i will honestly say i still go to the shop as i am friends with Nick, Mike, Chris, and Jon and im honestly impressed at the lengths these guys go to, to make sure things are as they should be with customers cars. *MAYBE* one got by but if they werent told about it how would anybody know what needs to be made right? and if never given the chance to make a problem right that isnt thier fault.
I have been there to see Nick bend over backwards to make customers happy, and how he cracks the whip to make sure his employees are on their game.
+1 for a hell of a shop and some damn good guys!
