Message: <blockquote data-quote="adamsredlines" data-source="post: 3586445" data-attributes="member: 40561">Had a friend tow his truck from Arkansas to Minnesota to have work done on it.  They, once again, gave a time frame and when that date was near...he confirmed pickup and they reassured.  We head to Minnesota and get there and the truck is still torn into pieces.  12hrs there, turn around and 12hrs home without a truck.  They finally finish it a few months later, so 12hrs back to pick it up.  Scheduled a track day with the builder before we left and on the first pass with the builder driving the truck he melted the motor down.  Back to the shop it goes, and once again 12hrs home without a truck.  They said the fuel system was insufficient for the modifications done, but...BUT...they spec'd and installed the system and cashed the truck owners check.  Round two of rebuild took another year so he was without his truck for almost two years to get a driveline upgrade (04 Hemi Ram getting a 6.1 based 426, built 4L80, procharger, nitrous).  Transmission was sold to him as a built trans but appeared to be a junkyard pull that shockingly didnt last and we wont even get into the components that showed up missing from his truck when it was finally delivered.  It's all a racket, performance shops and gunsmiths.  My experiences with both are largely on the negative side which they shouldnt be.</blockquote>
