I put down $1500.00 and was promised the valve covers in less than two weeks. After two months of excuses from him I finally tried to cancel my order. He quit returning my calls and emails and I filed a claim with my credit card to get my money back.

Greg thanx this is the input I was looking for. I refuse to spend that kind of money and go through any of that BS ! I did that once not going to happen again!!!!

I would give serious consideration to using Proline Racing Engines or Steve Morris Engines. Steve Morris is well known for their Procharged motors, but they do alot of turbo engines as well.

Mario,

Your experience with your tranny and associated bits still wouldn't prepare you for the too often experience with that company you mentioned.

There are several other people who can do what you want and EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS!

Mario - Have you talked to Jeff Schwartz?

I have received a ton of PM's on this company and not one good! Looks like I will be passing on NRE . I was tempted to email them but what's the point? I planed on making the gentleman on PT.com an offer on his NRE TT but the motors not done. So I see a disaster waiting to happen. Communication and Customer service seem to be a major issue and I'm just not ready to spend 40 plus thousand dollars and deal with BS!!!!
