So if anyone wants to look me up and try to link me and greinder03 together as friends you will have no chance of it, because I have never had any other meet ups with him in my life. You can search google and find all of my other post on the other forums under Lotaimpalass or look me up with my real name Matt Shaw in Derby KS I don't care you will find no link what so ever.

All I realy want to tell every one is as far as I can tell their has been no wrong doings from greinder03 to me I was refunded all of my cash in less than 20 days.

Those of you trying to link Crack head craig and Zack together I totaly think you are mistaken..

Later
Matt

I bought a "low mile" Ls2 out of a TBSS in august from Zack. I came on here to defend him, but the similarities are WAY too much to that of craig payne when it comes to these motors such as R & L, the picture of the motor getting loaded on the truck, the excuses, the pallets with a motor sitting on its oil pan and a ratchet strap. Clinton town ship..... come on does this really just happen by chance??

Also I am not to pleased about finding a small nut that fell out of one of the intake ports when I went to turn the motor upside down to pull the crank! This makes my ******* pucker thinking about what could be wrong with this motor, also motor oil was seepling out of that same intake port when upside down on the eng stand

-took almost a month before shipping it too, was not happy with that, and It inconsiderate and un helpful if I did not post this to everyone.

Wheather all these dudes are the same or know each other doesnt matter at this point. The truth is they are dishonest about the condition of the products. Has even one of these "low mile" engines been run in as is condition? Doesnt look like it. Therefore they should be sold as cores, not dropouts.

Ill be calling a few machine shops and craig tomorrow to get a price on a new sleeve.

There was a bit of surface rust on the cylinder walls (im guess to being left out in the rain). Dropped it off to be hot tanked. Picked it up yesterday and went to hone it tonight and found this...

Thats a good question. I sent a PM to a couple mods a while back and didn't hear anything. I guess they don't care if people are using the classified section to rip off people who are loyal and honest.

People are gonna stop buying big ticket items. I for one am.

You need to do C.O.D. with a purchase like this... and if they dont agree look else where.. way to much money to just send out, people are shady ***** and hes a complete moron. Deal local or within your state, so you can physically pick the item up!

i am curious about something....

some of you have said that you picked the motor up in person, which means either he isnt too far from you, or you have the ability\finances\time\etc to go there and meet him.
if this is true, why has no one gone there and "learned him good" yet? i mean jesus, how many people have been butt-fucked for 2-3 thousand dollars already?

Just an update......I know its been a while. After ordering new pistons/rods/crank for this motor...I have waited 8 weeks for a back-order set of Mahle Pistons....I was informed to today that one of the cylinders is cracked. So lets just add this up......YUP, COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSS! The only thing good on this LONGBLOCK, were the heads (which I didn't need). Awesome.

TheBiz,
Have you tried to contact him and get your money back? SOunds to me like you were sold a motor as working and in good condition, and got total ****. If he wont give you your money back, or jerks you around, perhaps you should think of some ways to wreck his *******.

i am sorry to hear honest people dealing with this.
