Andy, I will be checking Matts engine after you know what went wrong. His outrageous performance engine has never been right from the get go.

Wonder why noone has seen Tommy long enough to kick his *** for this?? Bet if you showed up at his business or home, he would take a different attitude!

Can you post the symptoms of the motor before it blew, I want to see if its like my JLP motor...

Clint, We have discussed your hesitation when you hit the throttle over and over again and again, Like i said before your over a 1000 miles away from my shop, youve had me along with other people tuning your truck,you had someone else do the work on it.. Your hesitation in the throttle has nothing to do with a BAD JLP motor!.. Like i said before, you have a vacum leak,fuel delivery problem,ect..I told you its hard for me (across the country) to properly diag. your tip in throttle problem with out me personally data logging,diag. ect. your truck here at the shop.We have sold now over 460 engines! we turn out almost 2 trucks a week out of the shop,I have had some be more finiky than others with heads,cams ect. but we have been able to tune them in perfectly 100% of the time!. Thats why i told you to get the truck to me and we'll see what the problem is.and see if we can get this tip in issue fixed.But when we just ship the engine out to customers,its hard to tell what is going on. we have had several trucks shipped to us after the customer had someone else install the engine and couldn't get it to run properly. you'll be surprised of some of the things we found.But once we got finished with it,they picked their truck up running 100%..And were very happy!,This is 1 of the reasons we @ JLP perfer customers to have thier trucks shipped to us so we can properly install,diag. dyno tune. We have our own transporter to helpWe always have their truck 100% Turn key for them!. I know this is very frustrating for you,and it would be for me too! But i need your truck here @ the shop to see why your having this problem...like i told you before i Know i'll get it fixed if its here @ the Shop....JL

How much does it run to have a vehicle shipped to you?
