Hello lart951,
I use adobe photo shop to edit . The machine shop pictured were reference to show the types of machines , the better machine is actually inverted or they have the long table fixed.....

And to reference that black car I built that car about 7 years ago (and 20 years with 944s) . Why because Ive always like them
Dyno sheet ( great for tuning ) Funny What did people do before the public dyno ?
And the little extra HP was achieved by the little blue bottle ( wet system ) in addition to meth and cam 2 , and custom cam , lightened crank , pistons , moded turbo , and custom ecus ect ( back in those days we were using the ford mass air ...
Im currently rebuilding the 88 S with the stroker just waiting on some parts ...
Personaly any time a do a fresh build I alway like to run the oem air flow meter for break in time ... That's probably just me

Refund sent. I have too many more important things going on in my life to deal with this BS. As many people posted, I've sold a bunch of stuff on here and have always been honest and fair with my dealings. This guy threatened me and pissed me off, when you do that I tend to stop listening. I'll be sure and post my findings when (if) the head comes back.

You'll get your head back exactly as it was sent but with better packing.

Actually I joined many years ago and there was allot of great reading and less bickering and Di_k measuring on here .

But when I renewed my member ship in 2012 who ever signs or renews , didn't put the correct joined date , I was on here a little after the 944 registry was started ( if any one remembers that news letter) . I didn't think when I joined was important ?? But its all good You luv 944's I luv 944's ..



This was an old card I kept as a reference it expired in 2007 I believe I joined around the same time as you did.

The funny thing about the Ford MAf s that the vendors were selling were Hitachi units with the numbers ground off ( which I called the ford MAf ). Its funny how vendors desquise one product and people buy it at a high price . remember these car have been around a long time .
They do with the turbo housing, check valves arewcalled boost enhancers ect , My favorite is the in car boost adj which is a air regualator used on sears air compressors.. Hey but guys buy them ,



The best thing I ve taught my self is there are people out here
That forget more than Ill ever Know ...with this in my mind I'm always open to learn, and I do give most people the benifit of the doubt.
Knowledge is ment to be shared, would you agree

I don't mean to batter anyone if this is basically near a full resolution, but I think the buyer deserves to be vindicated here in order to maintain a standard in these forums for the sale of parts sold by RL members.

If this is what the seller said:

"I have a 951 head that I had freshened up, and I only put around 5k miles on it after the refresh. It was decked, valves ground, checked for cracks, and they installed new valve stem seals. The ceramics are all good, no chips..."

...then any buyer's expectations are going to be very high. Based on that stated description from the seller, I would have been pretty horrified with what I saw in the pictures if I received that, and would have definitely had a reputable shop check it out. I can point to multiple things that the seller had done wrong - more than enough to consitute a no hassle refund.

Stuff like this is why I've only been buying used parts from LART.

This is very true, 99.9 percent of my used part transactions will always be thru Lart. Only time I go else where is if he doesn't have what I need at the time, which is rare.
