which has no power to do anything.

I know you may be out some money.. But if that is there attitude and there poor workmanship I would just demand the motor back and have it properly done.

No way would I pay them a second time unless you are sure it may have been a error at your end, which it sounds like it isn't.

heck no, i wouldnt either.

If they arent replacing any parts, I'd get the engine back and fix it myself. if they are, I have them send thos back with it.

are the cylinders damaged?

who built it?

Forget about any pictures or reports that they would send you. They could easily make that stuff up, and at this point, I would not expect less from them.

Ask to have the engine returned to you, pay the shipping expense, and find a good machine shop in your area. There are plenty of Moparites living in NY on this site, who can recommend a good machine shop that stands behind their work, and will ensure that your engine performs properly.

Sorry to hear about this dilemna, but you served everyone on this site by letting us know what this vendor is all about.

Well i this point i just want to get my motor back and away from them.

Being that they have it and the fact that i can't go there in person makes me what to be rather carefull at this point.

They have are ready refused to stand by there work along with misleading and trying to take advantage.

Thanks again guys fall all the support and advise.

Well i let you guys know the final outcome when i get this back.

where did you get it from? who built it?

I wonder if somebody on the board close to there could go pick it up and ship it to you? Whatever it costs you is cheap compared to paying them to re-do it and then having to go through it again when you get it back.

You are correct. The BBB only requests that the complaint be reviewed by the other party. If the party comes back and concludes they have done a thorough and timely review, the BBB really cannot do anything. The first party has the right to rebuttal, but again, that may go nowhere too. The BBB only wants to insure the complaint was timely reviewed. It has not way to force and outcome on either side.

Playing devil's advocate, I really would give the engine company the benefit of the doubt before blasting them on the board. Again, if you are not and expert in this area or do not have the results back or your own independent results it is really a matter of your word vs their's. Most companies are probably not out to get you and it is highly possible that when calling their cust service person, they were not a true expert either, did not understand what exactly the issue was, or you could have misunderstood as well. My point is this, keep your head up. Be patient for the results. We all know or have experienced crazy mechanical issues before in our lives and this could just be one of those cases. I think it is wierd that it ran fine for 7000 miles before this issue popped up. Best of luck to you.

Were you running any nitrous on it?

LOOK at what else these guys claim ......

Blueprint engines arrive ready to install. Because our engines have been dyno tested, the assembly lube has been "washed" from the bearing surfaces. We drain the oil for shipping, so when your Blueprint engine arrives, the bearing surfaces are dry. We recommend pre-lubing your new blueprint engine with a pre-lubrication tank. This small canister hooks to shop air and forces oil through any oil sending unit on the engine. In just seconds, oil is all the way to the pushrods, and you will have great lubrication at start-up.

I hope you dont mind Challenger... but I just went to there web site and sent them a email telling them I heard they are not standing by there work regarding a broken ring and that I myself will not ever be doing bisiness with them.
( I did not mention anything about this site)
Sorry but I couldnt help it!

Another thing to remember (unless printed differently with the engine). Performance parts usually carry NO warranty. You buy it is yours.

A "big" engine rebuilding company like that should warranty that motor. They have the funds to keep a good reputation and back up there work!

Why don't you have them send a picture of the bottom of the main caps, and back side of the bearings. This will tell the tale of detonation.
