I'm so pissed off. Whipple crank pulley issue
Some of you may remember a few weeks back I said my crank pulley kept coming loose etc and the back side of the pulley was all torn up. I didn't realize the pulley was from whipple so i called GM and described it to the parts guy. He ordered me a harmonic balancer and said it was a special order item and I had to buy it. $130 wasted. Anyway, I called whipple and ordered the crank pulley. I got it today and it doesn't even come close to fitting into the harmonic balancer. I was so confused. I called whipple and they said, oh, you have to cut the corners off and just kinda shove it in there. So basically, the one i have is fine. $160 wasted. Mother ******!!!! Nice engineering ********. Sell me a pulley then tell me to hack the **** out of it to make it fit. WTF???? The whole reason i bought a new one was because the one i have is all hacked up. I'm gonna smash something now.

That is pretty shitty man . I dont mean to laugh, but Ive had so much **** go wrong that now I just dont care anymore. The more I spend to try to get things in balance, the more dumb **** breaks or has problems. I spent over $450 on my alky kit that takes a **** every 4 months. I whouldve used the money for an intercooler setup. Now the piece of **** is turning on by itself and dumping alky into a sitting motor and killing the battery (pump being on). Of course it isnt doing **** now that I keep checking it. I cant wait to come out one morning to a hydro locked motor. My girl is fed up with all of it and wants the truck gone.
