I checked into this guy a few months ago and received an overwhelming number of bad reviews. As of today, you are the only one with something good to say.

Cheers,

I would not be too hasty to write off Jim Lutz. He sells rebuilt performance engines at a decent price. Personally I'm impressed with his web site and information (see attached word document.) As for the chip if it is copywrited then there might be a problem with that issue but to copy a good thing and improve on it is ingenious as I see it.

If I ever need a rebuild I had thought of dokng business with him. Could it be that I am not seeing what you see? What was your bad experience. Pmail me please about it.
