Mistakes you only make once

Another time I sold a 360 from a truck to a guy. He installed it. No oil pressure at idle. We put it on the lift and I saw the oil filter plate leaking. I pulled it to find strings in the filter. and I mean alot of them.

I pulled the pan plug and the oil would not come out. Dropped the pan and found peices of rags which he immediatly blamed me forbeing in there. Until I reminded him the motor came from a truck and he changed the pan.

After some investigation I looked up and saw there was a rag wrapped around the cam.

Then he started blaming me again for the rag being in there. When it was all over I come to find him and his pro mechanic left the rags in the motor they laid down to scrape the intake gasket for the new intake.

After Bearings ,Oil pump and cleaning all the rag out we got it running. Only cost was parts no labor because I felt bad. He was one of those guys that didn't have much and was out of work.

Then the word came back to me he was spreading that I screwed him on a motor that had a rats nest in it. This was after he sold the car and I bought some of the parts he had. He got another car now and has been trying to contact me for parts and work. I willl not talk to him anymore.

he is a member on this site his name is Tom Bachman. Nice christian guy well soft spoken person. Just I cannot deal with someone who lied like he did and was saying what ever he had to so his wife would not know the truth.
