    These guys have some serious equipment and are still small enough to fit in "Oops" broken tap jobs.

    What went well you ask? I would have to say that they make you feel like you're the number one…read morecustomer even though I knew I wasn't. I got to meet Jim the owner in person super cool dude. I was able to talk with him for about a half an hour about my build after that, Jess took care of me with all my questions and concerns. So with that being said thank you to the Hot Rod company.....

    It's long .....first off very confusing the way they log and track ,parts,time,warranty, received…read moremonies. I sent very specific info my truck year,engine,and I guess assumed the new engine would be the same style vortec because the vortec years all have their own parts . I have 1996 k1500 with vortec 5.7 and a 4l60 transmission ( early 4l60 are 700 r4 with extra servo and not all the electronics) kinda figured a shop doing several thousand units a year would know . The shipped me a 4l60 e LS transmission and said all transmission need custom fitted ...not what I ordered ,,,then they kept shipping cost said they are not responsible,,,I did not order wrong transmission.i have all communication back and forth . They try to delete all info but I screen shot everything as to give date and time .Now as for the craftsmanship ,,engine looks good but ..big but with the non vortec block and a early 1995 date code the alternator and AC are reversed for the vortec so again lots of changing ,adding,, modifying,,to make work . I have the warranty but Jim voided immediately after he took off the flex plate of the balanced blue printed engine I paid for ,so I purchased a sfi stamped jegs replacement. I am researching the entire engine piece by piece as the ace efi has an issue that ace efi is working on ,,,( relatively new company ACE not best idea using their parts until they get all their problems worked out ,,but these cause they were and still are cheaper than the big companies. The cam is a cheaper model sm 1011 under 200 bucks which is not suited for comp control ,their specs but hot rod company uses anyway ,,,heads are house brand ,,not sure if valves springs upgrade as per sm website But for most part they use the cheapest they can ,,,several other yelp comments the same and as for operation under another name West Coast Performance as per the Washington state attorney general office complaints and also better business bureau ,,,so please do research get everything in writing copy and screen shot everything ask questions parts ,numbers,serial number,, everything I will guarantee I will never be a repeat customer and there is several better options ,,skip white performance had some tough builds ,,,Jim butler performance,,,GM performance ..all offer better package for same or better price as hot rod company ...I also am planning on small claims court . Larry Mackey Well Jim you respond and act as you care or would try . But we both know your response on text and what I personally heard you saying to Jess as I was on phone with her . You know the only way you can fix is refund my money ,,you have used 3 different reasons you kept it ,yes 3 I have in texts. I have screen shot everything from day 1 so your deleting from shop monkey I already had copies ,,I have texts and can prove all ,,,,, secondly day 1 was on contract 1996 k1500 5.7 vortec ,,you as knowledgeable shop ,builder should know the vortecs are their own breed ,,I asked for 383 yes but not completely different engine family it's like sending a old 350 to an LS build ,,,you sir are not very knowledgeable by our your actions and smartass asking me why I did build myself if I knew so much ,,yes I have done a few over the years ,yes a few rad customs the 305 ho turned it to a 334 dragging 350 s was a fun build but for reasons it's not why I didn't do myself I am a disabled combat vet and was going through some cancer treatments and removal surgeries the last year has been rough ,,,so I thought I'd buy , no matter if I used out of life savings account thinking I probably won't live to use it anyway I bought a very pretty engine as seen on eBay . I wish I would of checked reviews we will see how it runs aces is going over my killshot and doing updates while there for warranty. As I looked up the parts I could verify you used are not compatible or doesn't work the best together but you use solely on a cost / profit formula not caring about combat ability ,,,according to cam manufacturer ,not here to debate or argue I have text and engine will fire soon so put your knowledge and positive influence in your builds ,,,please ,,,you have the better business bureau complaints and the Washington state attorney general office complaints .stop trying to act as you work with everyone ....it proves other wise ,any way will see how things work as stated it is a very nice looking engine ,,,which I've spent a lot to enhance,spot light ,bring to a show quality ,,changing some ,adding,some we shall see how it runs with ace and their authorized tuner .good day sir I truly wish you well ,,please remember the customer ...13k plus with you ,,another 8 k on making a dream come true. Best wishes
