Besides, he knows he lied - so my advice to all: do NOT do business with Steve Yanda at Yons Racing in Colliers, WV.

    The last guy that did this to me cannot sell his kit cars anymore because I made sure the word got out in the kit-car community. All I want Yons to do is tell me what engine is really in there...

    I will be looking for some steel Vortec heads soon to give this "LM1" a little boost.

    Thanks again for the advice, everyone!
    It really is "buyer beware".
    I would be very careful of what you say about people on the net.
    Some people have been sued before for making slanderish re-marks.
    What I can't understand is why a legit business owner won't return your calls.
    Was this a used engine or an engine he was selling on consignment for someone else?
    So if I understand this correctly this was supposedly a 330hp crate engine from Summit and Steve at Yon's racing re-built the engine?
    Wow!!!,that is a story.
    Did you leave anything out??
    Just remember there are two sides or more to every story.
