Anyone personally familiar with whats going on over at Schumacher Creative Services? They own Engine-swaps.com. Their online store is out of stock on all items, and there was an issue with the store in early January. Just wondering if anyone has heard from these folks - great products and I've been buying stuff there over 25+ years.

Been wondering myself

I need a set of mounts for my 65 Cuda, I emailed a month ago and got a bounce.

I talked to the owner last year and he was having health issues. I don't know exactly what happened but I assume his issues got worse and he isn't able to run the business anymore. A small business like that usually can't keep going if the owner/operator gets sick.

Their Facebook page has this message, dated 14 March:

This same thing happened when Larry of 'MotorcycleLarry' passed. His daughter tried but orders were paid for but never shipped. I know of 25 bike riders that paid but had to fight PayPal to recover money but a few used Debit cars and may never recover.

They haven't responded to that e-mail, for me anyway. There are people on FABO that are out money for parts ordered. A business that has no parts, and now the phones are down Well, I wouldn't hold my breath about getting any parts. Nor would I send them any money. If you are local and can get your part in hand and pay for it face to face, great. I've been trying to get one of their torque straps for over a year, and finally decided to fab one of my own.

Me neither. I was looking for 340 motor mounts, and luckily I found the last set Rhino had.

Are they still in Seattle? Can't somebody local check on them?

I heard they were done, guess it was correct...

One of my friends called him last fall and got the information that he sold out as a part of a larger group of companies. He was hopeful that new owners would restart the business, but that seems to have not been the case.

Does anyone else carry his Tri-Y headers?

People on Facebook asking about Schumacher that need early B motormounts have been getting referred to Crossram Connection.

Anyone else sell mounts that allow a late model 5.9 to go in 68 Abody?

Shouldn't that be the same as the 340 mounts?

If so transdapt makes a kit that will put it in a 68 A body that had a slant six.

If it's already a V8 car you existing mounts will work with a spacer on the driver's side if it's a 273/318 otherwise if it's a 340 then you can just use those.

I wonder if anyone is producing those tri-y headers. Don't need them, but always thought it was a neat product.

I have a set on a 65 Sport Fury and love them. Easy fit and nice performance with no leaks.

BUMMER!!! Great products. Hopefully someone will pick them up

About a month ago I talked to him and he said he was giving it up and moving near the water
