Re: Now that scamchargers is gone?

I called it scamchargers, but I always went there. Got my plug wires there, ARP head bolts, all my cam swap parts, my LCA, Panhard, relocation brackets, fuel pump, etc... I had a friend that worekd there. I'd rather go there and help him get a commission and spend a few extra bucks, then order online. Plus I like getting my parts right then right now. Their prices weren't totally bad. My MSD SC wires were like 69.99 I think. Plus I always got a little hookup on select parts.

Saw in the paper the other day that Livernois has taken over one of the Ramchargers locations to take up the void. Think the east side location, could be wrong though.

Yes they took over the masonic and gratiot location. I saw an add in cruise news. I have met Nick D before from MM and I have heard all positive feedback about his shop... Give him a call.

Re: Now that scamchargers is gone?

As far as Lukovich goes, my son worked for Ramcharger's and moved to
Lukovich, along with another co-worker at Ramcgarger's. I think he would
try to provide anyone with good service. It might be hard to make a small
purchase a huge priority when your primary business is high end race engines,
but I think they're trying to do more retail support.

I went by the gratiot location today. It's now detroit speed and the banner said now open. Looks like a nice selection. I went by at 3 and it was dark so i'm thinking they open monday. They were still setting up some stuff.

Re: Now that scamchargers is gone?

i wounder what going to happen with the waterford store. Yea i do agree that bashing of RamChargers is a bad thing to do. My dad got some stuff from there for his truck I want up there looking for a job just before they went under. I have nothing but good things to say about the waterford store.

Another vote for VRE. I got all the suspension stuff I ordered from them very quickly.

Re: Now that scamchargers is gone?

I was a huge fan of ramchargers. They price matched with Jegs for me. Anything is better than Murrays or Autozone though... Anyone know anything around Ann Arbor?
