Just copy/pasted it and used the "Quote" button. 
What year are your cars? What kind of "GO" mods do you have on them?
Also, I think we have pretty much seen/read them all here, so you might want to at least try to explaing the problems you are having with your car the best you can. Also tell us what did you pay 1500 for: what was replaced etc. That's a frigging lot of $$$!

replaced the rear main seal, oil pan gasket and timing chain, also the rotors and brake pads in the front only.
Price:1500
Outcome: Still ****ing leaking, the car has a BIG problem AND its kinda overheating. Basically I paid him and I got worse ****!
Big problem is off the start you can peel out with a lt1 (we all know that it has GREAT accellaration capabilities) and now it greatly hesitates and has ALOT of lack of power off the start and during the ride. Long story about power lacking problems, but the main issue is that i paid him and he said "o you are getting the best deal" if you went to the dealer it woud have cost 6000 bla bla bla...
Omy GOd... im soo pissed right now just thinking about this ***ed up situation that I cant continue typing becuase of my frustration!

I just wanted to meet new f-body owners here in san jose so we can start a cool fbody club like those other cool websites. I need people that know what they are talking about... friendly people that can come over to my house and chill with me and inspect my car!

Replaced timing chain, it's running like crap, and it's overheating.... I'd look at whether the timing chain was installed wrong.

san jose here
Dude chill out. First of all, go back to your mechanic and tell him fix the problem right, or take him to court. Dont let him hussle you. Did you pay him by credit card? If so, dispute the charges. I know of a mechanic who can help you. Hes in Fremont, Ive known the guy for a long time, and he works on my car. Also check out this site www.norcal-ls1.com.
