You need meds bud! Yeah, 40hrs pulling your motor, tearing it down, installing the yard motor, plus all the other crap that adds up and not free. "Payments and installments" lmfao..., for what life??? Dude I had to buy you food because you had no money.., you would hardly return calls or messages from any of your multiple cell phones, the car rental place here sent the cops looking for you in Washinton because you hadn't paid them in weeks... Your a joke to think I was taking advantage of a situation, and yes very concerned how the time/funds I had invested were going to be taken care of, especially after you telling me "she's my wife" then "Dude, we aren't even married, and the truck is in her name, I don't know what's going to happen". Yes I did find your "serviceable oil filter" in the shop after you left, in fact it's still sitting in the same spot. Yeah $11k, new crank, Carrillos (I was able to use), AF "street" cam, machine work, and all associated internal parts plus un paid labor add up quick.. I got $12k in aftermarket parts?? The Trans was sold for a price you agreed on, then had to locate and buy a stock Trans ($1200)..., the aftermarket injectors you had me send off and have serviced cost me $700, and you traded a set of stock injectors for yours plus some cash..., I made $400 on that deal after paying the $700.., turbo, yup I made some money on, and the rest is sitting in a pile. Your some kind of special to think everything is free.
The lights you fixed yourself under the dash, BD controller issue or something, had nothing to do with me we never touched the interior.
Boost tube to IC you knew was a temp piece because, you had the other side at home and the aftermarket IC needed to be connected somehow (you even made a post here wanting to have one sent my way ASAP). We made it work temporary to get your ass home!
We can go round and round, I've got all the texts and emails about how your ex was screwing somebody else, living down south in Ca, illegally refinanced a broken down truck, kept the funds so you couldn't fix it, you telling she was going to sell the truck, then you were going to trade it in and needed it stock because it would sell for more up there...
We installed a motor from the yard, --->as soon as it was fired up at 10pm<--- you literally got in and hauled ass back home after not sleeping "for two days"... There was literally no time given to go over anything and you know it. We could go round and round with the he said she said crap, but you sir are not worth my time!
Dude, shame on you for flinging the shit of my personal details, but 11 years together by common law made her my wife, there were lots of hoops to jump thru tho, which is why I divulged the info I did to you, in confidence...and here you are plastering the forum with it, in a shameful attempt to save face...
First of all, I dont think anythimg is free, so shut your damn mouth, I implicitly wanted to pay you for the parts you bought and you declined...the only one actimg like this shit is free is you, conveniently I can't cut and paste the words from your mouth... also, the engine was out and tore down in 4hrs flat, you know how to work and work fast and well, when you want...and that was also put into text on this forum as I was duely impressed and applauded your hussle...but that was just day one when everything was looking peachy...how the tide turned when things got screwed up and you only looked at yourself, and now you're "claiming" to be "stuck, sitting" on some of the most sought after parts in the duramax game...OK dood
I did think you were doing me a favor, Russ, but I offered to stay in touch with you and settle up, time and time again, I even had a significant sum ready to buy the parts you had ordered, on the spot that day I picked the truck up, and you told me to hold onto my money, I needed it more than you and you bragged about how much profit NorCal turned and how you had everything lined up for the next build comin thru your door
And it doesn't surprise me things are still sittin in the same spot, now, 3 1/2 months later, your shop is a disaster
Secondly, the engine wasn't " first fired" @ 10pm, I wound up leaving your shop at 9pm, 3 hrs after you left...and, you said you had it together before I even drove down, you even said you drove it...now youre saying you didn't have time to go over it? Lol, you didn't care to go over it...bit the elephant in the room here, is you're a liar and an asshat
The boost tube thing you said you had handled, but youre right, I did look for the appropriate boot to help you out...I cringe at the thought of the wasted time your trained monkeys wasted putting together that "temp piece" when the awesome boot from BD and all the hardware was only $140, retail...which I'm sure you could've gotten cheaper because of the clout you claim to carry, like getting 60 over injectors done for 700$ like you bragged about when telling me my 60's weren't worth what I paid and I got ripped off and that wasn't your problem and you weren't going to credit me nearly that much for them...
Everything you did was a bare minimum to just get that truck out of your shop and for me to get my ass home, cuz you knew you'd never see it again and didn't care...
You bought me food cuz I could afford it...? HOLY FU**IN shit Russ...get off your high horse, your wife or GF, whatever the F she is, brought food, 2 cold egg McMuffins...cuz I was stuck at your shop tryin to figure out my next step, I had more food in my truck than what you bought...your a damn fool...
And you blatantly bring my personal struggles of my relationship into this, when its irrelevant to the topic at hand, which is you...
The rental car was debacle and a misunderstanding, they failed to mention their terms when I took it, which was a 24hr rental contract, and they debited my account every week and that bill was over 2k, and got paid just fine
Try to discredit me all you want Russ, I live my life in the open, I know who I am and I'm not ashamed of who that is, I've never once let someone down
And you're going to bring my wife's affair into this? In the context of her screwing another man...wow...Classy Russ, you'll bury yourself, here...
Youre trying to back up your 40hr claim to fame on an engine swap, lets bring into.play that you told me it took yoir guy 40hrs just to get the donor engine in...when an engine swap took me 16hrs, by myself in my garage with no air tools...LOL
INSTALLMENTS FOR LIFE? My settlement between my X and myself is settled and my house sold buddy, just like I said it would, if you had the foresight to understand what I was saying, back when this went down, you wouldn't be "Out 11k" like YOU CLAIM! We had 300k in equity in that house and split it, can you do that math?
The IC connection, temp or not (which it wasn't, you put it together like this knowing I was thinking to sell it) was crap and you sent me on my way to make a 1000mi trip like that...
The lights, who knows WTF the "reason" for it was, but it was fine for years until you got your hands on it...
I need meds? Look in the mirror bud...I go to counciling and trust the opinion of the professional who helps me wade thru the garbage in this life I live...unmedicated
Yeah we could go round and round, you're right, but I'm not going to allow you to talk shit on me...and everything past this point is water under the bridge
The only one needing to "eat" anything here is you, so try and take bite out of that huge pride of yours, chew it real good, and I hope you don't choke when you swallow that bitter taste of reality
