With that said, the documented problems with my car after the delivery have nothing to do with my feelings about the upgrade. Let me address them specifically:
- I just inspected the yellow wire for the temp sensor and the fan shroud bolt was lose after you helped me out in your email reply. In fact, 4 others were lose also. Not sure how this happened but no one has touched a bolt in the engine bay since the car was delivered. I tightened it and the temp sensor is reading correctly in TS. Thank you.
- My mechanic addressed the brake and reverse lights last week. After investigation, he found 50% of the fuse box up front did not have power. He ran a jumper from the one side of the box to another and I have reverse and brake lights now. Obviously this was from the upgrade work as my fuse box and lights were working correctly before.
- The paint chip was not there when I dropped the car off for the install and it does not show in a video I took of the car running for the purpose of selling the factory intake system just before I dropped the car off. As for the closely located scratches, I do not remember them being there.

Scott, I think you need to adjust how you think the process of customizing cars goes. The moment you cross the threshold into custom / hotrod, you just have to accept that you're going to be chasing knock on issues. I am still chasing exhaust issues, for example.
Al is as good as they get for keeping his clients informed and involved, but if you want turn key mods then you're going to have to open your wallet a lot wider into Singer territory.
