Re:Built d16y8 = 4 broken ------- pistons *Pictures*
well as far as i look at it..he could have said it might of had broken ringlands. if it had broken ringlands u should have took it right there as if there was a possibility u might have to buy new pistons. so if steve said it could have broken ringlands then you knew off the bat that it could have been fucked but u bought it anyways. still a good deal. comeon now with some new pistons 1400 bucks for a built block. what more could u want. well 1000 would have been better :P

he never said that it could have been ring lands. he said that it was probably that rings had lined up...

even though he did say there was something wrong with it and was unsure, to be honest i think hes liable for some of the cost of the damage

Exactly. He didn't know that the pistons were fucked up. He'd be a scammer if he knew what the problem was and didn't tell you. He gave you his opinion on what was wrong with it. You listened to his opinion You knew the risks that there could be something seriously wrong with it. You gambled, took the risk and lost. I know it sucks but I don't think Stealthmode is liable for anything cause he sold the motor as fucked up and you got what was promised, a fucked up motor. It just sucks that its more fucked up than both of you thought

still, the motor is fucked and he definitely didnt do anything wrong so he has the right to be pissed regardless if steve is at fault. Im not taking sides and none of us should since we dont know the whole story, but im just saying we shouldnt automatically say ssl2k should just chalk it up as a loss and quit bitching, because i know i would bitch at least a little
