    Does this mean that favoritism is a thing of the past?

    Not intended to ruffle feathers, I just like being a part of a happy community that's all. :)

    Its funny,Over the past 2 years I can not count how many times Ron has gone to bat for this guy on numerous forums.And some I must say wasn't that pretty! I for one have chit chatted with Ron lots of times on the phone sharing the different stories i have heard about the vendor in question.All of which was no good.And for a long time he stood up for him.Its a shame
    he has treated his customer this way.More importantly lost Ron as a friend....

    Ron, next time your in town (or close), we gotta meet up. Sounds like you could use a drink. It's 5 O'Clock somewhere, right?

    Well this is a sad state of affairs and as a side bar to all this, the vendor that built Ron's last engine and I might add which has been thrashed and taken a licking thru good tunes and bad and kept on running strong which is a real testament to the quality work he did was kicked off this forum.

    Hey Ron...

    Very true, CMW built TWO awesome motors, one of which is in my car. No doubting that, but you are opening a can of worms that 1) does not belong on this thread, and 2) does not need to be reopened.

    Thank you.

    Good read and glad to hear your ride is working properly Ron. It is very unfortunate that many of us had to go through this with GSM but now it is most unfortunate for Scott. I think he can salvage the GSM name but it is going to take a lot of hard work and some serious PR.

    Ron I am very happy to hear your ride is where it needs to be and your running great with the RDP Tune. Long story short, I would of never been running the Mondello Heads if it were not for Steve/sgtstanko being a part owner at the time. He is the only reason I had complete faith in the product they were advertising because he was in charge on Engine Development and the Mondello Heads, he stuck with me through all the B.S. that GS was doing with him! Believe me I was scared to death when he called to tell me he was no longer with GS, but to not worry, he will be taking care of me and he did.

    Three vendors who have made my purchasing experiences a painless dream,...... SPP,Southern Hotrod, and RDP!

    Thats my opinion and I'm sticking to it!

    i can echo these exact words scotty....... had many a conversation with ron about gsm and some of the doubts i was having about certain products of theirs..... when the stanko debacle hit the airwaves, etc....... i just can not believe the inability for some people to see the forest through the trees........ to try and get over on the very car/person that is the poster child for your business makes zero sense to me!!!

    i am just glad things are going the right direction for you ron!!!! call me putz!!!!
