are you callin me a "fraud"???????

it depends on how well you handle "twisting" the facts a bit. come on, the government does it all the time to get there stuff!!!

 

Oh believe me, I don't mind frauding the dealer at all. That all they do to us !

I'm not even gonna bother with that though as the WILL find the reason why it happen. Going up a grade wouldn't be enough to cause the damage I have.

Someone said one time that the dealer told them they would have had to be going 195mph for 3hrs straight to cause the damage they had. That's probably what I would hear too.

I blew my warranty out the window 2 weeks after I bought the truck with the addition of some mods. I knew what I was doing and was ready to accept the consequences if there were a problem.

The dealer will fight you on just about any warranty issue. If they don't think they can get paid for the work by the manufacturer.... they won't touch it.

 

I'm working on that now. I figure by the time I'm done I'll be well into 10K. I'll for sure being doing some internal work. Don't know about twins... maybe down the road. It's going to be costly enough just getting back on the road.

I'm hoping by at least the end of the month I'll be cruizin'

 

I wish I had a nice automotive shop. I'm an electrical contractor so I do have quite a few tools just not a lift and some specialty tools that are handy to have.

I'll post some pics of where i have it and some of the carnage later.

 

wow i almost teared up reading your post. that sucks i hope things go well for you triton.

 

My wife is ok with it. She knew as well as I what could happen going to the track. She's just about as much an enthusiast as I am so, she's looking for to the rebuild too. She told me last night that when I get it back together, she want to run it down the track ! I told her no way and she said find, she want her own truck [:@]

 

I'm not calling anyone a fraud. . .it is just that action that is fraudlient. Some dealers are cool with some mods and will warranty damages that occur from the use of those mods, to an extent.

lets also say your torque converter went out. you were useing a preformance box when it went out and thats all you have. . .there is a known issue with the TC balloning under high load conditions while it is unlocked. yank the box off and have that bad boy replaced under warranty.

there is only so much damage that can occur before the dealer becomes suspicious. a droped valve seat. . .warranty, dropped injector causeing a hole in a piston. . .warranty. . .blowing a turbo. . .warranty, completely nukeing a hole and possably two others and you'll see an eyebrow being raised. now, unless your completely stock, been having all routene maintenance being done at the dealer and the latter happens, then yea. . .I can see warranty, however BOMB the thing and that happens and you'll be hard pressed to get STAR to see things your way. . .unless your Rich(Cumminalong)

 

thats a good girl to have!! why wouldnt you wanna do twins right off the bat and build the engine complete now instead of down the road?? O and just curious wat are ya drivin right now?

 

What about Carslile?

 

yeah...I'm hoping to still make it. That's why I said I'm hoping by the end of the month I'll be on the road again. I have reservations !!
