Default UPS sucks

Mods I dunno where to put this. Sorry. I sent an F20 clinder head to Laskey racing in Anaheim on Dec. 5. I called on the 9th to see if he had received it and he had not. Laskey also has my short block that he has sleeved and is building right now. The head was going to be completely worked over, but UPS f@*$!ng lost it. I insured it for 500 bucks and Earl said he had spare core heads lying around so I'm not completely outta luck. But this sucks. In the box I had also put some bolts and screws that were missing from the block I had already sent, some miscellaneous parts for the head and other small things that it will be a headache to find. They have sent me paperwork for a claim, but I am going to see what y'all suggest I do to get the most out of this debacle. Anyone? This sucks so bad. My block will be ready in about a week and he needed 2 weeks to finish the head so everything was going to be ready at just the right time but f@&#!ng UPS sucks ballls. Happ Holidays damn't.

Just file the claim, you'll get your money.

I have had nothing but bad luck with UPS so I try to steer clear of shipping anything with them. FedEx has been good to me.

What can Brown do for you? Lose your head, that's what. I haven't gone wrong with FedEx. Yet.
