MODERATORS: DO NOT MOVE THIS THREAD.
JACK POSTED PUBLICLY AND I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DO THE SAME.
Jack-
I'm sorry that you continue to harbor ill-will toward me. It's quite evident in your posts and everyone sees right through that.
The repeated insults aren't necessary, especially in public.
It's also disappointing that a hardcore racing veteran such as yourself would shun better (and correct) components for our trucks.
The fact that you're denying other owners these components isn't a feather in your cap either.
I promise you: If your blocks came from ANYONE else, they are not correct and you WILL have problems down the road.
If I am not mistaken, a Vendor makes money off of their dealings with members. As I clearly stated in my initial post, this is NOT for profit. I offered to post scans of the receipts so that folks know EXACTLY what the components cost.
If you still stand by your decision, then I ask you why you hold a double-standard as I was 'allowed' to do this exact same thing with the battery tray storage boxes (which I believe you purchased one of...and a project I didn't break even with).
My plan, as I stated in my original post, was to do this small first run (5-10 pair) then pass the information along to a site-approved vendor. This will NOT impact any of the current vendor sales as my project is for the BLOCKS ONLY.
The price that my blocks are currently at ($244/pr.) is NOT outlandish nor expensive considering the quality of the materials used and the labor involved. I did NOT include any "Kev Time" or anything like that.
Quality does not come cheap. But you already knew that.
As much as I did not want to come back here, I had to. My blocks were designed SPECIFICALLY for the SRT-10 regular cab trucks, and there are many owners here.
I posted not only to help complete this project and possibly add a product to a vendor's list, but to also make sure that other SRT-10 owners have correct and safe components in their trucks.
I can't say your response to my thread was totally unexpected, but I will say that I am extremely disappointed.
