got ripped on ebay just wanted to let the rest of you lt1 guys no not to buy

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...e=STRK:MEWN:IT



the passenger valve cover was mae backwards......that is about it, the bolt holes are on the upper side of the cover instead of the lower, he will not contact me or answer the phone or email. this guy sucks!!!! lost 101.00.
or i could go spend a few bucks at a machine shop and put the pass. cover on the driver and have the driver made.....but no that would cost as much as buying a set of regular ones for 220.00.....damn it

I have those same covers, not sure if from the same seller tho..
What you are saying is that they made the alternator notch[which wasn't 'deep enough' on mine, I still had to grind a bit off the alternator to fit it]on the 'wrong end, and the filler spout is welded on the 'wrong end' also?, resulting in the bolt holes being on the 'wrong side'?[It being die cast, I can't see any other way to have that problem, except that the welder messed up]
I like mine and Crane Golds SA 1.6's fit under them also..

I had bought a set of these and hadn't tried them until I saw your post (the motor is out of the car for upgrades). Mine fit fine as well. Sounds like the machinist was drinking that day. Sorry about your luck and I hope it gets resolved.

Re: got ripped on ebay just wanted to let the rest of you lt1 guys no not to buy

after i raised hell a few times they got it right. and paid all the shipping, they have a website where they give free shipping if you buy from the website directly. but ill have to find it. the ones that were out of the "new" batch are great and fit over my roller rockers with no issues. they are nice parts but it did caus my car to be down for 3 weeks , that was the ****ty part cause it is my only ride
