That cannot be good. I assume money has already changed hands?

I think he meant the cars are still being built not the motors....

Looks like Tom sold them on 3/10/2009, not 3 years.

No The accesories,sheetmetal intake and polish are extra.But i can offer you the same deal as bruce for 1400 extra i'll throw in the intake acc are another 1300 its a f-body drive setup and the polish would be around 800 if you wanted to go that route so 23500.00 would get you it just like you see it but its a all aluminum block and heads the shot is with a iron block.Delivery time is 2.5 months from time of order.I would be glad to walk you threw any part of it.The map i do on the dyno is wide open then from there we have a mapping feature on the dyno were we run 10%tps up to 6300 rpm adjust all the afrs then 20 % adjust afrs then 30/40/50 and so on so the base map will be very nice.But there are so cold start and light load accerations you simply can't get on a dyno that has to be done in the car.If the cars an auto it probally won't need any tweeking.Stick cars with light flywheels may take some adjusting.There would be mutiple ways to accomplish this.The software is very easy its Electromotive newest version a total remake from the previous 3.56 So i can walk you threw that on the phone when your ready,Or if you don't want to deal with it you could always ship the car when ready and i'll do that for you here.Shipping is very affordable these days averaging around 1k one way from pretty much anywhere.But it's pretty simple.The changes can be made on fly and the ve table is highlighted in what cell your running so you can drive the car and instantly see whats happening.Thats the beauty of this package is it has a nice stand alone unit that comes with it.If you have any other questions i would be glad to answer them thanks Tom.

I don't think that Tom has anyone that is still waiting on delivery any of the TT LS motors that he was promoting here over a year ago.
I know that Tom is busy and is shipping motors constantly....so where is all this hot air coming from?
Who are these (supposedly) disgruntled customers?
