My dealings with graham@nitrousoutlet. NOT SATISFIED ! You need to call me buddy. I sent you a PM with my number because I lost yours. I either need that title to the formula, or ill be bringing it back. This is getting a little ridiculous.

The formula ? Nah....traded it. Ill update this when I get the title. So far we are good. Said he had to file for lost title and its being sent to me directly. I've never had to do that before, but he says everything is good to go.

Title work can take a while to get back from the tax office unless you walk it in and even then it takes a while. I work at a bank and when we have to do title work its funny how we can get a title back quick but another we send off arthritis same time takes longer to get back

Well I FINALLY got the car running. I took it to badchad to have the motor replaced and what not. Well What chad had to say about the car WAS NOT what Graham told me.
Let me start off by saying chad did an EXCELLENT JOB with the car. I still need to have him do a few more things done to it before i put it up for sale
Graham told me when i got the car all i had to do was replace the motor and it was good. VERY FAR FROM !
The car was FUBAR beyond belief. I honestly don't know where to start
A few things i did know about the car:
Needed motor replaced, front bumper needed upper bolts to hold it on, and the window motors were going out. Car needs complete a/c system under hood and heater setup.
A few things I DIDN'T KNOW:
*Drive shaft was barely held in all the bolts were loose and one bolt was completely different.
*Needs steering rack. Leaks bad.
*Tq converter bolts weren't even bolted in and one was broke, so it chewed up the rear cover.
*Dip stick was broke off 6inches above transmission
*Front timing chain cover was busted from him trying to pry the under-drive pulley off with a pry-bar of some sorts, INSTEAD of using a pulley puller.
*I wanna say the abs wiring was fried and had to be redone.
*He told me the heads were P&P, well upon looking at them it looks like a midget with a grinder went after them.
*He told me it had a 232/236or238(he couldn't remember) 590lift cam on a 114lsa. Ok if it had such a big cam why were the valve springs stock on one side and what looked like older blue z06 valve springs on the other side ?
There are other things that I'm probably missing that i cant think of right now i just know it.
I contacted him over a week ago about the heads, he told me he was gonna call the person who did them and give me a call right back, i text him everyday for a week and havent heard anything from him.
*Rear end, from what looks like a lt1 6spd car. NOT a LS1 rear end.
In my honest opinion i think he's a liar and a cheat. I think the car was merely pieced together to get sold to a fool like myself. Its my fault for believing a guy who works for a sponsor on here and taking his word. For one I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AGAINST the company he works for, just him as a person.
I wouldn't hesitate to buy from his company, just not him personally or through his company, id ask for a different sales person.

Nope, **** that. Car runs and drives. Still needs valve springs so that i dont **** up the heads or worse. And just other ends and outs to make it a car worth selling.

Im still debating on finishing the rest of everything up that I can do myself or just sell it as it sits now.
