Is the motor still running?

 

Yes

 

It would be nice to get a video of the engine running to see how it sounds.

 

What difference would that make?this post is not for entertainment,it's to show people what they can expect when they spend their money with Kings performance and something goes wrong.

Every form of communication has been ignored by them.As I've said I'm in the process of saving up and buying replacement parts so that the engine can be rebuilt.If they don't mind the public knowing what kind of aftersales they offer by completely ignoring what's happened to my engine after all the money I've spent with them by sticking their heads up their ass ' its upto them.

I suspect they will lose out a lot of business due to this post,which not only shows what you can expect,but also shows the arrogance of them,thinking that not responding or offering help in any shape or form is their way of dealing with things.

As it appears they have forgotten I exist I see this more of a public information post than anything else.

 

No pun intended but the video would have more weight. Whats wrong with posting a video? I would like to see how it sounds along with other people.

 

Why continue to run it with the aforementioned known issues? Hoping the engine would blow on the dyno? As it stands, if I'm following correctly, the engine is still running and is making good power?

 

Thats exactly why i want to see a video. Lets see how it sounds.

 

Why would I be hoping the engine would blow?Kings Performance have showed to everybody who has read this thread what they are prepared to do about it......nothing.So any further damage will come out of my pocket as is everything else.My Tuner advised me that as far as he is aware it will just eventually start to smoke and use more oil.Ive spen 5 years and 10s of thousands of UK pounds on this car,as I mentioned in an earlier post my health has been better so I'm not sure if I am going to be able to drive the car next year.I need to get at least a little use out of it.

It does make good power but nothing like what Kings performance claimed.The stock engine that I was forced to run last year because the original Kings engine was fecked made 508@12 psi,This makes544@1.4 bar with a better fuel system and bigger injectors.The engine is lacking nothing to make big power apart from the fact that it may blow up on the dyno,but psi for psi it is nearly 100 hp down on a stock motor.

It seems to me you and the other guy umair are picking holes in the facts that I've put up,weather that is the case or not I don't really care,all I know is that untill the engine is stripped and rebuilt it is unsafe to run big boost.Maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way but the catalogue of shoddy work that I've posted up with photo's to back it up seem to indicate the incompetence of the engine builder.......that's how it seems to me,maybe you see it in a different way.

The fact that Kings performance have remained quiet after their only post slating me as being a cheapskate just seem to compound the fact that they tried to defend the un defendable.I would welcome coments off Fernando but I have the evidence to back up every single thing I have posted up,so I have nothing to hide.

Regarding a video of the engine running,I'll be honest,I don't know how to post one up,but if I can get somebody who knows what they are doing to post one up for me I don't have a problem with that.

Umair....just because he gave you a few dollars worth of heat wrap doesn't make him the best company in the world.....if that had been a few thousand dollars worth then you would be thinking the same way that I do.

 

I really don't see why a video would be of any good, most videos don't portray what is actually going on or even replicate sounds correctly and after reading and following Glens threads this includes all the pictures he has posted i don't think a video is even needed, The way i see it is Kings were going to supply Glen with a built street engine capable of 800+ after Glen received the engine it was found to have being built using broken cam carriers and several bolt holes with stripped threads meaning it needed to have repairs before it was even fitted, now some may say they would have checked the rest of the engine but Glen spoke with Kings and they reassured him ever thing else was fine and dandy and to fit the engine, when the engine was run on the dyno the tuner refused to carry on due to the poor condition of the engine which was then shipped back to Kings and rebuilt again with a different block due to forklift damage in shipping, the second engine was received fitted and run in then went for final tuning to achieve the goal that was set out to Kings only this time the engine suffered severe blow by resulting in blowing out the dip stick and and oil out of the breathers, the tuner again decided on not talking the engine to anywhere near the intended goal due to the poor condition of the engine, as money doesn't grow on trees and Kings are refusing to help Glen is left with the dilemma of raising the funds and parts for a decent rebuild that will achieve the goals originally discussed and agreed on with Kings, so in the mean time he is running the car with a substantially reduced boost until such time he is ready to do the rebuild, at the end of the day a lot of folk will have a different opinion and gone about things differently Glen didn't he relied on the information given to him by Kings the engine builder,

 

Just for information,I bought a brand new Harley Davidson Road King in 2008 that the gearbox spun a bearing in its housing...so a new gearbox was required.4 months and a rusty frame Later I was prepared to takethem to court at my expense.I was given a brand new Rocker-c which I was happy with.All this is to highlight that I am prepared to take on the big boys so a tin pot tuning company like Kings performance isn't even on the radar.

I am fully aware that I am going to get nothing out of this but that doesn't mean I am prepared to let it drop,because I'm not.

If Kings were going to do anything about this it would have already happened.I would have posted up that a satisfactory conclusion had been agreed and removed all my negative threads.It hasn't happened,that is why I'm not prepared to let it drop.
