Hey Dold, sorry to hear about your bad experience with Maxpower. The work I had done with them was some 8+ yrs ago. I have to say the workmanship and customer service was excellent at the time. In fact my cylinder is still looking great and still in spec. Even many pistons later.
You know whats Ironic ? I first used Maxpower due to a similar bad experience with US Chrome. and I was curious about their ceramic technology
You know whats even more ironic ? Rick Petersons and MaxPower merged to form one company quite a few years ago.
Maybe the merger was a bad thing for the company....maybe you just got a "lemon" cylinder job and a "lemon" for customer service...
Maybe the companies are now buying their materials from cheaper suppliers because of economy, causing poor quality issues. We have all seen that from various industries lately.
Oh well, Im not bashing anyone here. Littlewing78, we just hope you your rebuild goes smoothly.be wise in your choices during rebuild.
