shotty work from a reputable place
i should have went and done it myself, but i let many people tell me they do good work. then again there cars have had everything done to them there at this place. built from the ground up ive seen some really nice and really expensive cars going in and out of there so i figured all was good. i guess its the money you spend there, is the type of service you get.

shotty work from a reputable place
i explained exactly what i wanted him to do. i made it clear i want MANDREL bends, thats what i dont under stand i could have gotten press bent from a freind for much much less. then the cheap what seems to be radiator hose, thats the real kicker. i told them this side is already cut out and ready for the pipes to go threw. i showed him everything. it just pisses me off to no end everytime i think about it.

shotty work from a reputable place
well i went to have my new 944 ic mounted and plumbed into my 280ZX. i picked the car up at closing so i could not call the shop back right away to discuss all that i found totaly wrong. first off i told them i wanted mandrel bent piping, i get press bent piping, that was the first thing i asked when i when there is do you have a mandrel bending machine for pipe and the owner said yes. second thing i noticed was that the top of my ic now has a small bend in it that wasnt there before. third they had used what seems to be radiator hose for a deisel, instead of silicone hose. i had made it clear also that i wanted my bov mounted as close to the throttle body as possible, this was not done and it was posted on my reciept that it was alright where it was. they cut a hole out of the other side of my rad support, that wasnt needed. all in all i could have bought all the bends and silicone hose myself from jcwhitney, spent less and personally done a better job. wasted was 235 dollar for a real shotty job. im just wondering do i have any recourse, is there anything i can have done, since the job wasnt performed the way i requested. i mean this is supposed to be the "speed shop" of choice in my area, if this is whats to be expected of them then i really need to find a good place to go to for this sort of work. any suggestions would be appreciated

Engine overheat
your t stat seems to work operative word seems, and so does your waterpump, both are very inexpensive and cheap insurance against damaging that head you just put some good money into. not only that both parts are easy to r and r. be safe instead of cheap and replace those old parts. its just good sense and even better insurance. not trying to pine on that but like the others said its just the right thing to do

Smoke and ping
to me it sounds like you are running absolutely full out rich. first thing i would check is the cold start and the afm. running that rich i cant see how you would have detonation though. pull your plugs and see what they tell you they should be black and fuel fouled if im right
