Hey Daniel think you could swing by and take a look at this cam bearing in my 355? I need a second opinion.

Well i found a block with rods crank and pistons so i'm going that route right now. But planning on doing it myself for the experience. Prob need some guidence perhaps.


Btw how is that guy liking those free set of wheels u gave him...

Daniel6718

i didnt give him nothing...and i havent talked to him in quite some time...you had his number it was yalls deal..if it make ya feel any better he stole **** from me and owes me also

97BBlackZ

Dude i never really talked to the dude. The number you gave me didn't work and any other one i never got a response from or was changed. The only time i talked to him was once from his and another from your phone. Then you gave him the wheels before he had even paid me.. Then said contact him to get my money and didn't have a permit number i could reach him at.
Point being you never should have given him the wheels to begin with or at least call me to verify that he had actually paid me.


Do you even happen to have any info on him? I still wouldn't mind paying him a visit

I would suggest Richard Painter in Euless on Highway 10.

Kim Barr is in Garland, but is pretty high for what you get.

97BBlackZ

hmm yea i've heard alot of things about him. Heard he kinda went down hill lately though?

chuck

Did you hear that about Barr or Painter? Richard built the motor that is in my red car now.

I used Rick at Metroplex Machine in Mesquite. Lloyd steered me his way. He seemed to do good work and cost wasn't horrible, wasn't cheap either. Haven't put the motor in the car yet, so I don't know the results. Hopefully in two weeks though!
