Default rip off

Some guys just have terrible luck ... It's a shame that I consider myself 'lucky' to have not suffered the same fate as some of the folks here, and a buddy of mine ...

He just paid $8,000 to have a BBC built by a 'reputable' shop here in Toronto, and promised 700 crank HP. 1st problem, WRONG timing cover left a gap so the filled it with silicone so it blew on his drive home and near emptied the engine of oil. Their response ... fill it with more silicone. 2nd problem, gets it on the dyno only to put down 375 hp at the wheels ... then scoped the the pistons to find out they were flat top and running at 8.5:1 CR ... REALLY ??

WTF is going on these day ????? It makes me sick to my stomach that guys are getting away with this sh$%&%t !!
