You should post this in the reviews thread.

$3500 for the whole engine set including harness, trans and everything? Or $3500 for just the block? If it was the first, then that should have raised all kinds of bullshit flag.

first mistake: taking someone elses word for something.
TRUST, but VERIFY.

does know one sign anything in writing or something?

also why does it seem like every shop just try's to scam people. are they all run by poor people who barely get by or something?

So how far are you from them? I'd drive over there and bring that engine with me. Then again, $3500 for an almost complete RB26 is too good to be true...guess it really was.

id just do a refresh on the whole motor you said your going single turbo anyway so just rebuild it and make it 10 times as realiable. itll probly be cheaper than to keep dealing with those guys.

there are 2 sides to every story

if i go buy a motor, i buy it from a reputable shop with a warranty

sounds like you didnt buy it from a reputable shop, nor do you have a warranty
