Default warning torque inc!!!

okay guys gonna warn everyone about john walker aka torque inc

i chose his build using the 611 cam,he told me it would take him 4 weeks to do heads,port throttle body and send back with the cam and different bore pistons,well 4 days shy of 3 months i got my parts,guess what there was not a 611 cam,he then told me to use a jury 24-d
this is strike 1 and 2

got engine put together and had russell from lone wolf do the tune,i got 105 hp and 116 for torque,quite a bit under the mid 20's i was led to believe this build would get,using the pipes and mufflers john suggested,with his heads throttle body and pistons.then i find out i was supposed to set my deck height to zero.
strike 3 and 4

ok the 611 cams are in,i pay for 2 sets of head gaskets and the cams,and opps john blames a reputable shop for not sending me the other set of head gaskets,i get the cylinders machined for perfect deck height,cams in,and down to russell for another tune.opps now with the 611 cams and deck height set right the engine is now pulling 103 hp and 110 try,wtf?

ccp is 225,john then tells me i got the wrong cam,so what do i do i pull the cam s out to prove i got the wrong cams!! when the cam was sent to me the cam card numbers were crossed out,a set hand written beside them,john blames the lackey for writing the card wrong,so i trailer my bike 13 hours round trip,3 hours on a ferry and pay for another tune at 500

now john won't return emails or phone calls,he blames lunati and thats it,no word from him

i think i invest in a good setup for my bike,and end up getting screwed the entire way thru it,do not use this piece of **** for anything!!!!!!!!!!!

hi,

thats why you go down to HD shop, buy a SE Stage4 kit or whatever is most potent for your bike, get it all in boxes and walk out of the place go home and fit it

thanks

I don't have the experience to rebuild a motor so I rely on an experienced Indy to do that kind of work. Just to many variables, to many special tools needed and quite a bit of training required which I don't have. Heck, the Harley school in Phoenix is 18 months of intense study.

That was difficult to read and I think 6 gun's translation is accurate.

Anyone who obviously and overtly joins a forum than for no other reason but to bash something or someone has very little credibility in my book.

But that's just me.

in defense of the OP he is active over on the RG forum so he's not a troll, just a guy who got really screwed! I don't know him but I feel for him.
