I’d take his sorry ass to court.

Unless they have something in writing, and they have a judge who understands something/anything about cars, you will have hard time getting a favorable judgement...

Take Care and keep us posted

It's going to take a while to get past the negative, this car was my baby. Just pisses me off that you pay someone a huge sum of money to have work done and they do a half-asses jib like this. For what I paid in just labor I could've bought a maggie and just done all the wrench work myself.

Some people have no pride or integrity. How they stay in business is beyond me. Or maybe he wont...

Not sure what part of Louisiana you’re in, but I’ve heard good things about Asylum in Baton Rouge when it comes to tuning.

Hennessy's price would have been higher, but they did my 850 pkg in 10 days door to door. Mom and pop's price is usually lower for a reason.

So spencer or "herold mtorsports" is back in business under a new name. He is going by "Race Ready Tuning Solutions" in IG. STAY AWAY FROM THIS CLOWN AND HIS TUNING!!! I finally got my car repaired and running right after almost a year later from rescuing it from his joke of a shop. The engine was consuming almost 2 qts of oil in 1000 miles. I found the valve seals on #1 & #3 were leaking badly. Both ports were full of oil and the valve stems were coated with carbon. He installed the wrong valve seals with the dual valve springs. To be on the safe side, I just ordered a complete BTR spring set w/ seals so that way I knew what was being installed. I got that issue fixed then found the pushrods were too short. There was absolutely no preload being put on the Johnson lifters. Long story short, all the sh**ty work done by his shop has been repaired and someone that actually knows what they are doing is tuning the car. If you value your Camaro, STAY AWAY FROM THIS CLOWN!!!
