    Bad Buisness

    Guys I have been on this board for 16 years and never been rip off until the last two months. I have bought 2 280 powerheads represented as perfect running condition, until I get them to my shop to find that both were hurt. So I give the sellers calls and to hear that both ran when I shipped them to you. 1 had a bad sleeve and piston which the head was beat to death and 2nd needs a complete nic job and a crankshaft. Please when you are selling a powerhead on here go get it checked out if your not a mechanic please don't ruin the trust on this board.

    Thanks
    Mitch Ludwig

    Jerks. I can just say... Powerheads are usually pulled off a running motor for a reason...

    I agree. For the sake of the community we need to police our own.

    The faster you get the name out to the community, the faster you can prevent this s**bag from selling more junk to an unsuspecting buyer. I ve bought two engines on here from stand up members and would hate to see the trust diminish around here.
