sorry about all your troubles. A friend of mine was going to get a set of injectors from them, but I let him read this, and then tell him to go elsewhere.

Kevin,
Let me know if there's anything I can do for you.
Those 16 P&B's have some value as cores, regardless of condition. Not much, but every little bit helps. If I can help you with injectors, I can give you some $$$ off for the core P&B's. And if not, I can still give you some $$$ for the cores, just let me know.

Jim

Jim, we'll see if they actually send me the AA's back. I called them last monday about it and they still haven't shipped them. If they do I will be in touch with you. If not guess I'm screwed.

I sure am enjoying this thread. Its not that I like seeing people get screwed, its just that I complained about swamp's a half dozen times on here and nobody didn't seem to take me serious. I would like to see that jerk go out of business!!

I have seen trucks run OK with the P&B's torn up. They won't run great and you kind of get used to the loss in power as they wear. They get to a point, though, when they get so badly worn that they won't even barely function and the truck can barely move itself along. Those Plungers flopped around int eh barrels like you wouldn't believe.

And you most likely won't see much difference with worn P&B's unless they are flowed, then it's painfully obvious.

These weren't in my truck, had two sets. A spare set and the ones I was running. We were going to start the deal by sending him my spares. When he got them he would send me baby swamps. When I received those I would pull mine and send them to him also. No exchange of money. Two sets for one.

I talked to David again because it had been a week and they hadn't charged me for the shipping to ship back my AA's. He promised me they would ship today. If they send them I am not going to take them to court. Getting the fact out there that a company would actually try to pull this *#?! was enough for me.

Also, I would have gone with Jim from the beginning but it was all a money issue. I thought I was going to get "free" injectors.

I am still 2-3 years away from upgrading injectors, but I know where i won't be spending my $.

And you probably asked me about doing the same deal, but with 13 sets of cores sitting here, I can't really help you there...

Least expensive Stage-2 AA are the Budget Built. Includes new nozzles, shipping to you, and a 60 day warranty. No core exchange, must use your set. PM for pricing details.

That is what I did and absolutely love them.
Very economical.
Budget build is the way to go IMO.
