2018 Royal Crimson F1A94 Procharged, TH400 Drag Project

[olaosunt]

All, I am afraid one of our forum friends @olaosunt is getting the run around from LPF on his transmission. I feel terrible for how this has gone. If anyone knows Justin at LPF or can inspire the change that's needed to get this back on track, please jump in.

I sold my transmission to @olaosunt (Nov 1) and packed it up and sent it LPF (Nov 9) as the buyer requested since he paid the deposit to LPF directly to build it (stage 2). LPF confirmed the receipt of the transmission (Nov 13) and started tearing it down (Nov 20). I received pics of the teardown (Dec 11) stating the transmission wasn't too beat but showed signs of high HP wear. Since Dec 11 I have not heard from LPF at all despite attempts to reach them. In the meantime, @olaosunt was also trying to reach them with not much luck. I asked Russell James on Insta if he'd help connect @olaosunt and LPF together and he did. LPF and @olaosunt made connection last week and LPF said they'd reconnect with him this week, but there's no word at all and they're back to not responding to any communication at all.

Any thoughts or help out there for a forum friend? @olaosunt doesn't use this as a means to get special treatment, but he's in the military and just returned from deployment. Overall, this is a pretty horrible way to show support of people in his position and as a customer.

@Rjames18 surely your LPF pal is gonna take care of @olaosunt ? The guy is simply trying to make a living protecting our freedom as enlisted military personnel and go fast at the same time. You posted how your pals shop was the go to place???? Many here consider you to be a representative of LPF, would you agree?

Thanks for all the support guys . I finally did heat from them Yesterday ... Promises again so we will see .

I am sure I will get it eventually, the question is when .

I would hate to clutter @turnswrench ’s build thread any further (I will continue to dog @Rjames18 on his if they don’t deliver soon )

I decided I would benefit from a shift light as I learn and get more comfortable with the th400. I know I can get the LEDs on the ngauge to do that job, but I am opting for something more centrally mounted to my field of vision and bright AF. I am sticking with Holley and ordered a Sniper standalone shift light.

Looking forward to getting that mounted up and sharing once it arrives.

I also did grab a spark plug gapping tool. Up til now I've always just tapped the strap on the concrete floor. The plugs in the car that made 1,075whp were gapped this way

This season should be a little easier:

I may have pulled open a strap or two over the years with some needle nose pliers lol
