well i ordered a 383 short block from them.
on feb 12. told me it would take 11/2-2 weeks to build.
after them giveing me the run a round for a mounth and a half, including them looseing my check. i finnally received the engine thursday march 21 dammaged.
the deck is scrached which i beleive came from shiiping.and their is a good sized chip out of the outer starter bolt hole.
that is not a fresh break!
i have contaced them and they say all the dammage is from shipping. and blame me for not checking it over better when i recieved it.they did agree to send me anther shortblock.(after i send this one back.freigt co. to pickup tab.)
but i have to see it to beleive it.
