I texted (with pictures) what I posted here to the "Self proclaimed world class Turbo engine builder" and got exactly what I expected...... NO RESPONCE !
If he ever works up the balls to address my latest engine carnage, I'm sure the finger pointing will begin and he will say "I" caused it.
The most important answer I want is......"WHY DID YOU USE MY OLD SLOPPY CHAIN AND PUT A TENSIONER ON THAT USED UP CHAIN ? ? ?"
He should at least know that answer or was he trying to cut corners on something he hoped wouldn't be discovered.
Some kind of answer and a monetary refund for the parts I had to buy would be appropriate.
This shyster is to cheap to reach in his pocket to at least compensate me for what I had to replace so far.
I guess he was to busy this weekend making sandwiches for his nut huggers !

This bastard is a first class HACK who only cares about the $$$$$$ and is protected by his band of Nut Huggers.
So who is this "Hack" ??
You know who it is, you were lurking on the other sites when I first posted my original complaint. His shop is in Burlington N.C. and he's hosting the TurboBuick.com Nationals as we speak, need I say more ? Maybe this will jog your memory.......O h-Oh I think I have been locked out of turbobuick.com and can't copy the link. Figures as the chief nut huggers are all together today in N.C.

[/quote]My apologies to the OP for hijacking the thread. Not another word on the subject from me[/quote]
That's quite alright.....we need to step up and expose the Rip Off Artists, Scumbags, Liars, Swindlers, Fraudsters, Bogus, Phony, Talentless, Douchebag, Dregs of Society who think they are getting over on us.
I told this A-Hole I would expose his Fraudulent ways on a public complaint site for all to see. He didn't believe me. Now if you look up his name on a web search guess what, People Claim and RipOff Report comes up along with his web page for all to see the total story of how he Screwed Me Over. Great recommendation for a perspective customer to read.
I'm more than happy to make sure NEW customers see what a Prick this Disrespectful, No Talent, Untrustworthy, POS Old Fool is really about before they get their pockets picked with inferior work and totally dishonest promises of new parts and first class mechanical talent. It ain't happening at this shop. This bastard is a first class HACK who only cares about the $$$$$$ and is protected by his band of Nut Huggers.
So yes, post away. Be my guest and step up and save some other poor souls the same fate I and others have suffered at the hands of this No Talent Bottom Feeder !

I'll pay good money for quality work, but when the jerk that built this motor tells me that I must have F'ed it up when I brought it back without him even looking at it first, there's the game changer right there. He said he never had a problem with one of his builds, well hell, I didn't build it he did.
We are all human and can make mistakes, it takes a real person to own up and make it right for the customer and not try to blame the customer. That is why I'm so pissed ! And now look at what I've found ! When will it finally blow up?

If you had your motor coming apart after the best turbo car rebuilder F'ed it up would you be happy. I'm not looking for any sympathy, I just want everyone to know how he doesn't give a shit about this situation. Maybe you like getting screwed out of thousands of dollars, I sure as hell don't. So what I've illustrated here is O.K. in your book. Sure as hell ain't O.K. in my book ! Have you installed a tensioner on your double roller chain lately, that's O.K. with you to I guess.
I've had 5 motors, 3 trannies and two rears rebuilt over the years I've owned this car and never had such B.S. and run around such as this.
If I had a problem they stepped to the plate and made it right on their dime. Not the case here !

Many of you know the story of my engine horror show with North Carolinas so called Turbo Jesus. I mistakably posted the story on that other B.S. turbo site and was swiftly reamed by his loyal brand of nut huggers. He built me an everything "NEW" short block that is a piece of shit, my new Gessler heads were on the motor. After going back and forth with this idiot he was pissed that I didn't pay him for looking for a noise he created. He tried to blame me after the motor was back at his shop "TWICE" with no repair to the noise. The motor was in and out of this car twice for him to fix. He checked the bearings and went no further. He also said to bring the whole car to him and he would fix it, B.S.. This money grabber was so pissed about what he though I owed him for looking for "HIS" noise, that I could smell a mechanics lien a mile away on my vehicle in his shop. This is one arrogant old coot that has zero customer satisfaction on his mind. Bring my car to him to fix, you got two try's and at this point he couldn't tie my shoe as far as I'm concerned.
He installed a bad set of lifters and from other things I discovered they were probably my old ones as they did not appear on my bill.
I found that problem myself, a freaken Rookie ! My mechanic installed a new set of lifters and that noise was gone.
Next scenario was a horrible noise that showed its head when I was just driving local, WHAM, WTF ! Shut this damn thing down and called a flat bed to tow it to my house. (This motor took over a year of B.S. and back and forth with this clown and has under 150 miles on it). In discussed this car sat on my lift for 3 months, I covered it and didn't even want to look at it.
I am not a mechanic but after listening to the noise coming from behind my timing cover I decided to take a look and this is what I found:
1- The cam button spring broke sending the button and spring into my gears and chain.
2- That broke my tensioner bolt off and the tensioner and tensioner spring took a ride on my gears and my "DOUBLE ROLLER CHAIN". **
** Doesn't the whole Turbo World know that you don't use a tensioner on a Double Roller Chain ! ! !
3- The chain was my old ass sloppy chain that this clown thought no one would ever discover, so he put a tensioner to quiet it down. **
** He was told to replace "ANY" worn out parts on the rebuild.
4- I had to replace.....Ti ming Chain and Gears, Cam Button and Spring, "NEW" Front Cover, (mine was galled and cracked), "NEW" Oil Pump, Cam Sensor Gear, and the Crank Sensor bracket was cracked because someone tightened it to much. Fortunately all these loose parts would up between the front main cap and the cover. I shut this thing down so fast that the oil was in good shape.
Used parts and shoddy workmanship seems to be his M.O.! And a Tensioner on a Double Roller Chain......SHA ME ON YOU ! ! !
Maybe you thought you were pulling the wool over my eyes but I have photos, videos and all the bills for everything I had to buy to fix what "HE" F'ed up !
So......The Turbo Jesus couldn't find what he F'ed up (or he didn't give a shit) only wanted more money. Well the ROOKIE FIXED ALL (at my additional expense) and now it finally runs perfect. My first time wrenching on this G.N. and I'm the original owner. Now who owes who money "TURBO JESUS" ! ! ! You can K.M.A. ! ! !

Sorry for no pics but it was so cold and windy we literally ran from the restaurant back to our cars when it was over.

Weather really sucked but guys still came out. We were able to establish some events we will attend and exchanged contact info for each other. Happy to have new Buick guys to hang with down south.

I have invited about a half dozen Buick owners I've met down hear to meet at Burkies 4001 North Kings Highway Myrtle Beach on Saturday Jan 23rd at 11am.
I would like to extend an open invitation to any Buick owners in the area to come and join us for a meet and great to discuss any 2016 events we could all attend.
This get together is intended to explore the possibility of expanding the enjoyment of our cars and the comradery of Buick ownership.
The people who are attending are very excited to disicuss getting a Buick vibe going in South Carolina which seems to be non existant in this area.
Come, introduce yourself and most of all......BRING YOUR BUICK !!!

I sold "The Most Optioned GN" two years ago for the asking price of $25,000.
Tons of paperwork went with that car. Due to the fact of it's rarity, I thought that was wwhat it was worth.
BTW, I sold that car in one (1) day !!!

I've installed a new repro aluminum radiator in my Grand National from Alradco.
I filled the system after the thermostat opened with the heater on high. All my hoses and fittinsg are secure and don't leak.
After closing a filled system (to the top of the neck) with the overflow tank at the proper level, I took it for a 1 hour ride After cool down I took the radiator cap off and noticed it was about an inch down on fluid.
My question is.....what is the normal fluid level supposed to be in the radiator after use.....right to the top of the neck as filled or down a bit ?
Thanks !
