I am trying to et them to cover the block work I needed done to my spare block to get my truck back on the road. I will NEVER do business with them again or recommend them to any one!!

This is the 1st bad thing I've ever heard of LPE. I don't know if this would be the case if John was still around today. Hopefully, this will work out. It always seemed that their motors were solid as a rock. Good luck.

BTW, please see the local forums on racing in MI. For you or snwmn984. Let me know if either of you 2 want to go to Milan or...?
