Does he have your cams or do you need some ground?

I have left voicemails daily and sent many emails for several weeks. If you get a response plesae let me know. I would be happy with a get lost message from him at this point, just to know he is alive.

if some biz has had your property for a very long time -- and remember some things just take a long time, so factor that in -- and will not communicate with you, then you need to contact your state's consumer protection agency and file a complaint
if you have an uncle who is an attorney, don't worry about the consumer protection agency and, if you have an uncle who is "connected," don't worry about the consumer protection agency |

Well, I am an attorney, but I don't really care about that stuff. I just want my parts back! Heck, if he would just email me and let me know he is still around, that would be nice.

Nothing but good things to say about John D.
John D. has been completely fair, honest, and willing to talk cam options and theory with me in the experiences I've had with him.
I haven't talked with him in over a year, but I just wanted to chime in with my positive experience to balance out the negatives with the problems others are having. Good Luck, lets hope that it all works out soon. Richard

I have always had good dealings with him. 7 months is a long time for a car junkie!

Seven months? John turned my rockers and cams around in five days, something must be wrong.

He was quick to respond to me in the engine rebuilding section about 6 weeks ago.
Maybe you'd have better luck contacting him there. Camshaft expert opinions needed
