Im said customer and im out on motor and looks like trans as well, i have contacted Chris at LSX powersports on facebook, text, phone calls and voicemails and nothing in return but a facebook comment to call during business hours. I spent over 5k at this shop and i have had my tbss down since march time frame, started with less than 20-30 miles motor spun rod bearing number 5 & 6 and main 3. i drained oil which i was told was new which it was dark black and looked like oil with thousands of miles on it. so i decided to pull motor myself since he wouldnt accept it was his fault when the motor only had 4000 miles on it. as i took the truck apart we noticed trans leaking, spark plug wires left unplugged, broken header bolt which he used gasket maker to seal without contacting me on this. also i paid for ceramic coated pacesetter headers which he ordered me painted headers instead thinking i wouldnt know the difference. As i continue with this tear down i take the trans back to have leak fixed he said was on warranty and to this day it still is leaking and since he wont contact me back i will also have to get trans rebuilt out of my pocket as well. i had motor rebuilt since crank was destroyed. heres few pics from tear down. i had a cam which i supplied installed with springs and rods, headers and full exhaust done, stall and 80e swap.

Seems to be the trend. One of your friends vouched for them for the longest. I almost had them do some of my work. I'm glad I held out. Taking them to court?
 
Id like to hear both sides to this story before i cast a judgement

What's the other side of the story? He's stating what he found, what he didn't get that he was supposed to, and that someone won't return communique's. Not exactly a "He said she said" situation like "Well HE started it!". :imo:

I give OP props though, first rant that I've seen where OP is cool headed about the situation. Usuaully a lot of "Fuck you's" and "He's an asshole" floating around.
 
He called me this morning once i saw this on ls1tech, gave me few excuses that he had a death in family and recently moved shops, i still dont believe over 4 months no contacting me back covers that but o well. i still really have no hard evidence the motor blew cause of him so i really cant keep blaming but for the rest of the services i paid for he has said he will fix trans and do whatever it takes to get me back rolling. Funny how the internet forums work huh?
