I'm going to guess that a whole pallet of unsold cylinder heads doesn't get the priority that an individual walk-in customer gets. And probably not as lucrative.


I totally get that, but when you take $25,000 of your customers product, and it's close to a year later, and they leave you a dozen phone messages on your answering machine over several months time, and send emails, and you return zero communication, that is bad business. If you are busy, no problem, just return one quick phone call or email and say "Sorry, I'm busy, I'm expecting to have them done in two months." Or whatever..



I wonder how many Bob has done so far from the pallet. I'm sure a bunch are done already. He did my W8 small block heads in 4 weeks.


I wouldn't count on it. My best guess is that he doesn't have a program written for those heads. He'd have to do a couple ports by hand and then write the program. Easier and faster to do heads that have programs for already. Had the same problem with Jeff. After countless delays and excuses I told him I would be on his doorstep if they weren't done by a certain date. I finally got them back but he didn't do the job I hired him to do. The work he did do was first rate and the price was in line.
