Default Eisele's SUCKS::MUST SEE

We took are 327 street motor to Eisele"s machine service 9220 E. Broadway Tampa, FL. They did all machine work and assembled the motor from intake to oil pan. $2016.55. All we had to do is prime the oil pump 3 times to 80 psi and install carb. Before the cam could break in the motor was knocking. Oil is leaking out of the block. Possible someone left cam bearing plugs loose. We took it back to them just to tell us where oil was coming from. They wouldn't even look at it. As they were listening to the knocking motor it came apart, in his face. his excuse was I must of have adjusted the valves too tight. The motor had less than 10 minutes on it when it happened. And it wasnt his fault. We would of settled for apology. If they would of just looked at it. This man spen thousands, building this truck around this motor and over a year of his time. We are not asking you to do anything just REMEMBER THIS TALE NEXT TIME YOU CHOOSE A MACHINE SHOP!

And this is how they treated us after we have been doing bussiness with them for 10 years!

Well Some dude awhile back Chuck Eundo or something like that, built my dads motor, my dad sent him steel crank and stuff, he got back a cast iron one, and he didnt bore it right and piston rings froze to pistons. It lasted a remarkably 2 races and we went to nationals in South Carolina and it lasted like 4 races. It would build up compression and fire and than if u held the gas half way the rpms would go up and down and it would pop, We unscrewed all the rockers and put air into the cylinders every single one came up through the intake.
