I can't say I'm either surprised or sorry.  They sent me a bad head, and
finally agreed to exchange it.  It took 7 phone calls to get them to credit
me for the bad one, because they charged me for the replacement.  After the
head replacement, I never could get the leaks stopped, and kept blaming my
labor. Finally bought a long block, and found the problem was a crack on
their head between a water jacket and spark plug.  They refused to make it
good.

If I ever treated any of my lock and key customers the way I was treated by
Mark Stephens, I would deserve all the flames generated by this list.
Customer service is the key in the service industry, and they failed at it
miserably.
