Well where do I start took my 3000gt heads over to this shop in order to be resurfaced. Decided to pay $100 extra for the shop owner, the professional , to put in some things while the heads were already taken apart, making it easier on me. This included the valve stem seals, cam shaft seals and lifters. All very easy tasks to do while the cams are off and heads are apart. As simple as sliding something out and putting a new part right back in. Fast forward a bit. I take the heads home after he is finished with the work. Didn t notice anything at first until me and my buddy started putting my engine together a week later. We then realized that quite a few nuts, bolts, and one cam oil seal were missing. Not having this seal would cause a major oil leak. the nuts, bolts, and cam seal, weren t too big of a deal because I knew I could buy more but on top of all that, he swapped 2 of my cam shafts (exhaust and intake ) which would be a catastrophic result if I were to start my engine. Luckily I caught it. instead of causing an issue I decided to just call the next day to see if he had the missing items No bolts but sure enough had my cam seal still. He Never once mentioned he had my seal until I called him. So I keep calm and go pick it up. When I go pick it up he greets me with a pack of my upgraded lifters that I asked him to put in as well and claimed I bought too many. I told him that I bought the right amount, But again I took it lightly and went home to double check to make sure I didn t miss calculate. Had to check all 24 lifters again and sure enough he completely missed a row of 6 old lifters! Again he did not mention having anything of mine that was left over until I went back a week later. Running 2 different bore sizes in lifters will cause uneven wear on the cam lobes which will result in many problems later on. To sum it up. He Lost hardware, kept my parts that were supposed to be replaced, proceeded not to tell me about them, owns up to the mistakes when confronted but will not refund the measly $100 of extra work that could ve caused so many issues if not fixed that I had to completely redo myself anyway. Should ve asked for the full refund being that the easiest tasks were all messed up and now having to hope the machining was at least done correctly. but that hope is just about lost. Fair warning, I d suggest going elsewhere

Stay Away. Will steal your car, tell lies that the garage burnt down, acts ignorant, sells the car for parts, and never give any notice. Absolutely awful what this business did.
