crcain and marco. in retro spec i understand the situation. marco, understood the situation try to confirm and solve the situation. crcain doesnt seem like a bad guy. As the customer I'd expected better from Magnus thats all. S H I T happens.

Dave whats that about your car running 9.0's have to do with anything?

Thank you Mark! Who by the way, if you want to talk about a lot of emails, Mark is the unfortunate one to have received a million emails with technical questions over the years. Mark is the best damn tuner I know, and has been like a mentor to me and my friends. Whenever we need an answer he has one.

Thank you David! I'll admit I cross the line sometimes but the Internet does not always directly translate motives.

And for any other references of how bad a customer I am, Eric Guadi from AMS can chime in. I've exchanged many emails with him while in the process of buying AiM dash, Exedy triple push conversion, Buschur COP, etc. Eric and AMS have given me great customer service and Eric if here would testify I was never a troublesome customer.

I'm not interested in dragging this thing out, but Marco is straight up lying about who was the PITA and other things like this ridiculous notion that I had a catch can setup routed back into the engine. Like what? I ran 5/16" host from one side of the valve cover to the other? Give me a break.

 

This subject of crankcase ventilation is interesting and all, but it has abolutely zero to do with the subject of this thread. Marco admitted in this thread to installing the wrong size valve seals for the springs he used (supertech doubles instead of beehives he said he was going to use). Yes I've always had oil consumption issues with my motor, I've never blamed Magnus for that. I wish I didn't have the oil consumption issue, but I really don't mind adding some oil once a month.

 

its pretty easy for a customer to get screwed by a big company.. I agree if I paid up front for an engine that was to take 3-6 months to build and it took a year Id be PISSED!!!

I spose 1 question I would like to know is, where is the build sheet? is it still possible to get it or was one not made.

How long would a company keep the records of builds??

keep your head up crcain =)

 

Holy mother of off topic threads!!! every non-pertinent post should be deleted. I picked out maybe 8-10 posts with relative information everything else was just arguing about crcain's magnus rant story.

 

You said it!

 

Fact: Magnus build works; even the most disgruntled user would agree, but a good 'heads up' for those 'time is of the essence' buyers.

 

Thanks man!

And yes I'd love to have my build sheet. But I'm quite sure it doesn't, and never has existed. If it did, presumably they would have sent it when I asked for it on multiple occasions.

Also, to clarify, the length of the build was not my biggest problem! It was how Magnus handled me, their customer.

 

to the OP, do yourself a favor and just get a motor from Buschur, the results speak for themselves!
