hi,
i have been a member in this forum and owner of very modified s2000s probably longer than allot of people here and the owner of 2 record holding cars ( 6 speed and stock chassis no wheelie bar S2k)
i have tried everything and experienced allot as well. i built several engines and full builds from inline pro and i have also build allot with kings during the past years. Both companies are great to be honest and i never faced any issue with either.
any modified car or build will always face issues that's why its called modified regardless of who builds it, there are so many other factors involved other than an engine build that can hurt the car (eg tune, fuel system, oil system, spark, quality of fuel and more)
trying to destroy a companies image in forums in not a very nice thing to do, mistakes happen and there are so many ways to learn and fix it. if you had a bad experience with kings it doesn't mean everyone did.
fernando does go out of his way to fix issues and help all his customers and i honestly dont think he would ruin his shops reputation by selling bad parts or builds. moreover when somebody buys a used engine you cant expect it to be as good as new especially when you are paying half the price of a new one.
finally i believe i have spent allot more with my builds than what you paid them but honestly they are a good shop and if they do mistakes they take full responsibility to fix it as we all know no one is perfect.

STFU, I hate it when people try to sweep things under the rug. Bad experiences should be posted on forums for other members to read. Are you going to go on Amazon or Yelp and tell everyone to take their negative reviews down?

/\ couldn't agree more.
It would be nice to see a financial contribution to the rebuild cost. I'm sure the new engine builder will be able to provide technical details of the root cause once stripped....

What takes the icing on the cake is that he spent more on his builds than you did. LMFAO!! Because that means something!
Unfortunately you don't mean anything to them. They don't care you had a bad experience , or that your car doesn't run and you can't enjoy it. They just keep cashin checks and that's all that matters. You already paid them.

I feel bad for him aswell, It's just a case of my tuner told him the Pistons were fecked, he chose to ignore that and decided he knew better.Thats why all the money has been spent on shipping, a brand new Benson sleeve block was supplied and the engine is still fecked.....That won't happen again.The next time that engine is rebuilt it will be the best it can possibly be, and I haven't just thrown my reputation away for the price of a set of pistons.
