I say we get down to the bottom of this before someone else says 'because crawford sucks'. It just doesn't seem fair to me untill we find out more conditions.

im just going by what i have read and heard from people. im not even putting my own experiences in it.

Edit- The only other thing that i can say that i have recommended that i did not have experience with is the ohlin coilovers

No problem at all man. Im just sayn that this sight rocks cause you have such a good chance of finding someome else out there that has experience with a product you're interested in. The less people we have here (not saying you one of them) that regurgitate all the stuff they read the better imo.

I agree and see what you are saying. No hard feelings.

oh and for what its worth, i have had dealings with Crawford, but im not getting into that now. I dont care about the product, but the customer service i dealt with was horrible.

How about...we keep the thread on topic?

Go back to OT, whores!

(I deleted your posts, and will continue to do so).

Damn, all i keep reading/hearing about is one blown crawford block after another. I never see threads of blown cosworth/cobb/axis motors, or i'm not going to say never, but VERY few, with crawford though it seems like there is one blown block for every month. I'm starting to see a pattern here, and i don't think it's the tuning that is ruining these blocks. If it was tuning, you would hear/see about it here and there, not all the time, with crawford it is literally every month!

IMO there is too much risk in going with a crawford block, maybe quirty will realize that being cheap about things and making the most money possible isn't always the best idea. He's so hard-headed though he probably won't realize this until it's too late, and i think it's starting to get to that point.

If you had a rod break in one of our S3L motors, please send it back for a free replacement.

**Siegel Racing** · 08-21-2006, 12:27 PM

Awesome, glad to see crawford is stepping up and backing his product, makes me feel alot better about considering one when the time comes.

I don't know how much good sending a rod back will do. Did you let that guy Quirt back on the computer? Bad move.

Ver7wannabe · 08-22-2006, 08:42 AM

Yeah, a rod won't help much if the pistons were shrunk down too.

This is the second Crawford motor that I have read about blowing in the last couple of days. The one in the Automaster shop car supposedly blew as well.
