[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15990858, member: 166576"] Heeeyyyy OP had his Shelby drag racing where I was wrecked into by a GTR. :D :D :D *IF* the GM wasnt full of shit, then there should be service records in Ford National history indicating the nature of the work performed: Modification removal, returning vehicle to stock etc. No dealer worth a shit would perform work on a used car they are taking in removing mods without a repair order. If there are records as such and they are before you bought the vehicle, you have a case. Mods before trading in the vehicle should have exempted it from CPO certification. Of course, the dealer can charge more if its been CPO's so the GM had a reason for wanting it to pass. If there are no records, now its he said/she said and you probably wont win. I would have towed the car right back to Perry. FWIW, Kearny Pearson Ford on Clairemont Mesa Blvd always treated me well, even with the misfire fiasco my car went through. It almost forced Ford to buy my car back. Wasnt their fault, and it was a tough diag and I loved my car so I passed. Car got fixed, I was a happy guy. If you knowingly modded the shit outta this car, drove the piss out of it and it broke, just take it like a man and pony up the cash for a new engine. Assuming its just a shortblock and the heads arent trashed, plenty of stock 5.8 short blocks out there. [/QUOTE]
