Mofoco has been building air cooled Volkswagen engines, rebuilding transmissions and manufacturing cylinder heads since 1968!!
Today is the day. We finally got our heads back from MoFoco. So let's unwrap t Excited. Can't wait to see what's going on in here. It's a little disappointing. I asked them for a list of what was done. That is the one-two side. All right. Remember I was giving t Well, t Well, I got my heads back. I unpackaged them and t Funt. Damaged. Too much taken off in the middle. Oblong weird cuts. Cartridge roll. Just mayhem. I don't know. I tried to give t He had every opportunity in the world over the last three months or so to make t Keep watching and I'll let So t And there's only less than a mil right there. I got my heads back. As you can see that intake runner, you can see through to the other side. Too much was taken off and you can't really show it on camera but this hangs over That's a problem. Next issue. This I took the n And it's because the inside of that boss is trashed. T I don't know man. I hate to complain but these unfortunately have come back worse than when I sent them. And I see there's a bunch of dyke them on the inside of here. I already had these valves lapped. So I hope he didn't change my compression ratio or my chamber size because I had the compression ratio and everyt So I don't know what to do here man. Contact me. Today we are going to finally finish up these huts. It's time to put the valves and the springs and the retainers and the keepers back in. First t Put t So here's the problem. When you put t He told me and I'll show you. There's no light coming through. T So you can see it's nice and flush. It's down and with the flashlight in that was not So I sent the huts to Roy at Moffo Co in, I t I shipped them in to him and they only took And I asked I'm about to s Let's your address. He sent them back to me. I got them back the first week of December and when I got them back, the valve would not come out. I showed T He said send it back. I'll do it all again. Gave me the excuse about Okay, fine. I get it. So I gave I sent them back again, literally Put them back in the box, s Wit So there's your whole s That was the first, second week of December. And then from there, I let And then I finally said, Hey, I'm not afraid to spend some money. I want to upgrade these t I'm not afraid to pay for it. Not afraid to spend some money. Want to do it right. He told me he would probably end up welding some material back in here to correct t A couple more weeks go by, Hey, what's going on? Oh, I'm doing holiday orders. I'm filling holiday orders. I'll get to your head soon. Okay. So I let some more time go by beginning of January. Hey, what's going on? I'm looking at Okay. I said, Well, you were gonna, you said you would personally take care of t He goes, I'm with my head guy. We're taking them apart. We're looking at them now. Said, Okay, great. I get a call from And he gets on the phone and he's I don't know why. Probably because I sent But the head guy starts barking at me at the phone. I talked to Roy and we don't replace valve guides for free. And that's that. And that was a quote. So I said, I don't know what the problem is. I sent What do you want me to do? And he says, Well, how do you t I said, I don't know. But I had video proof. Watch the video of the guy, the guy sliding in and out perfectly fine. And there was no light s When I sent them to you, when I got them back, the valves don't come out. And t And he starts barking at me. How do you t Look, he's blaming me. I said, Listen, man, put yourself in my shoes. I have video proof showing you what I did. You send them back to me. And they're worse off than when I sent them in. So he gives me the rigmarole and run around about how he'll look at them and check them out. Okay. Some more time goes by. And then I get a video or was it a video or a picture? Or did Oh, no, it was just a text. He says, and there's where it was taken off too much. You put a gasket over t And you block it. You can see when you put that gasket down. See, it's look how much metal showing when you look when you pick it up, look what's left. Yeah, you're basically putting a band aid on the problem. And then when you put t It's not going to show light coming through the other side. So now I'm starting to t So he prepared to send them back. As you can see, now that they're back, not It's up for more damage to the heads. Now I got to put these together and CC them and make sure they're still 60cc because it took me a lot of work to get those all to 60. Because I wanted my compression ratio to be right. And when he sent me the text that said, oh, he cleaned up your veils and he did some work. Wait a minute, I didn't ask for that to be done. You I hope he didn't. I said, I hope it didn't change not If he's grinding in here, he's going to change everyt And But now I have to. So I got to start all over again. The whole spring they're cut weird. They're cut funky. The casting in here is horrible. The only that casting mark goes all the way down to the valve seat. See that line? All the way to the valve seat. And it's on both of them. See that line? It's pretty proud of it. And it looks He tried to sand that out. I'm just wondering what happens when t It goes all the way through and it comes out on t You can actually see where he tried to sand that out on t See how shiny and then there's I mean, look at that. That's pretty, that's pretty ugly. Please give me your input. Let me know are these t Should I get rid of them? Should I move on to somet Because I have way too much time and money invested in t 76 CB Performance crank, brand new cam lifters, everyt Help me out everyone. I really, really need your advice on t I'm disappointed in MoFoCo. I'm disappointed in the way I was treated from Roy and I'm disappointed in the results I got. Even though I offered to pay for services, he had no communication with me the whole time. No communication. MoFoCo, th I should have never sent them out. I shouldn't have ever sent them out. Or I should have took everybody's advice, every single person that was nice enough to You're going to drop a veiled seed or somet I don't know what to do. T He did not hook me up. He got my veils working back the way that I had them the first place beyond that. Nothing is done And if you want proof, I will show you every text that we had back and forth. It started from, we're American company. We do all t We've been around. Our heads are better than anybody's out there. We've tested them with everybody. They run cooler, this and that, just blowing up his company The last few texts I got from t We're just, well, come on, man, we're doing t It's Do Moral of the story is if you want it done right, do it yourself. Even if you don't know what you're doing, take your time and stop when you're satisfied. I will never do t And remember I said I was losing faith in these? Well, I have officially lost faith in t I'm done. I could completely go off. I guess the problem is I don't have anyt Here's what I t Junk. I will not run those.
