Im glad people haven't forgotten. I believe L&M got him for around 32k in the engine. Let's not forget Evolution motorsports (Fred cook) aka Fred crook was just as bad in giving him cheaper parts than he actually paid for. It's one of the worst vendor screw overs in the mustang community I can recall in the past 3 decades. I don't believe either places business has been the same since.

Think the seat pressure was 69 on the livernois springs. Now full disclosure they were not shimmed when they were installed. Installer thought they were drop in springs. I found after the fact but figured they still should've been enough at that low of boost.

Livernois claims there better because they will last longer and hold their coil strength over time. Yada yada yada. From what I'm told they can build a good engine they are just not that versed in turbo setups and requirements.

I cannot believe for one second properly shimmed those springs would've not floated at 15 lbs of boost. I'm glad they are outta the motor.
I read A LOT of bad things about them when I had my 3 valve as a result I would never do business with them.

When it comes to engines, I suspect much info here gets pulled in from yellow bullet.
The closer you get to Detroit, the harder it is for a crappy engine builder to stay around.
