Well I'm posting this for a friend of mine. He runs a head shop here in Denver.
He sent out some used FRRP Cobra Heads ($3,000) to a company for a CNC run. Well the company had the wrong CNC program uploaded and it LITTERALLY drilled THROUGH the side of the head. They called him and said that they would weld it and send it back.
My friend said that that was unacceptable because he sent the heads in perfect condition (freshly cleaned, fully functional, fully disassembled) and he should get nothing less than a perfect set of heads back. The problem is that these are the FRPP FR500 heads (or something along those lines) if they were a set of PI heads, he said it wouldnt have been such a big deal. He (and his customer) didnt want a 1,000 horsepower motor with a welded head....
They told him there was nothing they could do. They welded it, CNCed it again, and mailed them back without a refund.
My friend is now stuck with buying his customer brand new FRPP heads and having all the work re-done on them. ($5,000.00)
Although he can sell the welded heads, it will only be a fraction of the final cost.
