Shitty thing too is that they charged him for a “ls6” motor. From the 853 heads I would gather it is a 98-00 ls1 motor haha. That guy should take the shop to small claims.

I can’t even wrap my head around this. That’s just incredible. I feel really bad for the guy who paid for all of that.

Should have just put the rotary back in it :P. Honestly though, I don’t know how I would feel getting ripped off so bad like that.

It’s been like 4 days since it was posted, but I think the shop offered to work something out with him.

Even if I knew FDs and LS6s like the back of my hand, there is no way I would touch that mess.

They basically have to tear EVERYTHING down and start over. That really blows. There doesn’t appear to be anything usable in that entire clusterfuck.
