1- if everything ive read is true and i have no reason to believe its not true, because mike would of been on here real quick to defend himself if it wasnt true, but he hasnt done that. with that said, ANYBODY that KNOWINGLY installs these suspect parts into a motor, then tells the customer hes getting a 0 hour motor has lost all credibility with me, plain and simple.
Was this a zero mile rebuild (big end bearing, crank bearings, seals, pin bearing, pin, piston (bore & hone), rings, clips, gasket set, etc) or a BRAND NEW ENGINE with 100% new Honda components? If it was a used water pump, could it not have stains from the previous coolant/liquid? What piston was in it that was the WRONG piston? One from another engine? A different brand then that which was specified/agreed upon? How could it be the wrong piston?
2- ive never heard 1 time anybody ever post anything but positive stuff about mike. wheres all these posts about his name getting dragged through the mud ?
Cepek, Bodger...who's up next?
3- cut him slack ? refer to #1
Let's see first what exactly happened with Ryan's engine and whatever is Mike's fault, I'm sure he'll take care of. Everybody here is quick to point a finger, even those who don't have any money in the game.
