i have an order and money invested. i hope whomever the distributor is who got my share of the money and provided no parts is drinking some johnny walker or dom perignon in honor of my money.
all i can do is sit and hope scott finds another distributer, returns and continues again and eventually an engine comes. i sure the heck dont want to pay 800 bucks for that european engine that pumps out less power then a brillelli, or a run of the mill over weigthed a motor, or that reputable motor for bent shafts on arrival etc etc

as far as what i will do if my opinion matters, nothing i can do. cost of doing business with a small "boutique" shop. aint his fault, i cant blame him for using my purchase money in acquiring more parts that were never delivered to the builder. and i sure the heck aint going to deny money for medical and food for families.

as far as the other suggestion earlier, for hearing him on the phone and see in his email the passion for engine building.... ill buy a dinner or help a internet bill for that. to see that passion return, well, ill skip multiple dinners and buy 2 dinners or 2 internet bills for that. just say when and where ill help with what little i can
