Seems to be just as much anti JR koolaid as pro.  I sure as hell would not buy nor want an engine that's had shavings circulating around. That would be a no go for me to own, not surprising they won't touch one either. I sure wouldn't. |
You are missing my point. You have some documentation to support the installation; but we see quite a few PPI candidates every year, and some claim LN IMS retrofits without any supporting documents, stickers, or photos. We have even had one that claimed it had an LN IMS Solution done. Only problem was the car was pre 2000, making it a dual row, and this occurred before LN released the dual row Solution. On the lift, there was no special spin on oil filter adaptor and oil line running to the bell housing, a dead giveaway. Yet the car's owner never backed off, even after we told the prospective buyer to move on to other cars. Sometimes people simply lie when it is to their benefit.
An experienced eye can often tell whether the car has been apart or not, but the average buyer usually cannot, or cannot gain access to see if it has been worked on. So when asked, we tell people that if there is no supporting documentation, assume it has not been done, and adjust your bid accordingly, or move on.
