Do not do buisness with TWINK Do not do buisness with TWINK (Eric Burton)
About three months ago, he advertised a NX Wet system on this site. He was offering an entire kit with a heating blanket for $450.
https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=170488
I agreed to buy it and he said he would throw in a preasure guage for $40 more. So the deal was set for $490. Just turned out he was going on vacation near where I live so we meet but he forgot one of the brackets and the heating blanket. I gave him the whole $490 and he promised to send the missing items. It has been almost three months and he has not sent anything. He responded to one of my many PM's saying he was sorry and would send it out immediatly. That was three weeks ago. I still hope to get my stuff but am not real hopeful.

Oh well, someone deleted the post. Don't know how that gets done but it was. Here is a copy of the IM that TWINK sent me on 7/8/04 saying he would send it out on Friday 7/9/04. Like I said, don't do buisness with TWINK.

I have not recieved anything and do not expect to.
Your post says it all, you need to grow up.
Oh, by the way, yes I have a V6 f-body and that is what the NO kit is on. Others on this forum do not have LS1's. I was not aware that one had to have a LS1 to be part of this community. However, I have a 2003 LS1 C5 Vette sitting in my garage. Not that it matters.
If anyone had any doubt about wether they should do buisness with TWINKs in the future, I think his above post took care of that issue. I will say it one more time, DO NOT DO BUISNESS WITH TWINK!

As the copied PM above that TWINK sent me on 7-8-04 states, he was sending it out tommorrow (7-9-04). However, his next PM (bellow) stated he still had not sent it on 8-9-04. I would love to see some proof it was sent. Oh, and this PM is just another example of the mature individual I am dealing with,
