So i took my car into my mechanic on June 7th. On June 12th, i found out what i expected, i needed a new head. So on the 13th i called slowboy and placed an order for a stock head. They did not have one in stock and originally said it should be to me in 10 days. So i waited and about 8 (business days) later i called to see what the status was on the head so i could let my mechanic know when it would be here. When i got ahold of them they told me they did not even have one in stock yet and to give them a call back in about 2 weeks. WTF!? So i waited patiently and about a week and a half later i called them back. i got ahold of them and changed the shipping the address to my mechanics shop and when i asked if i could change the shipping to two day air, they told me to call them back when it is ready to ship in 2 weeks. WTF?!?!?! So by this time i had already waited almost a month without my car. So i called them last tuesday and they said it had not shipped out yet but should be here this week. Ok, finally i'll have my car back on the road in a week. Well i call them today and he tells me that all the people in the shop and shipping were both gone for the day and he has no way of knowing weather or not it had shipped out yet. So here i am, scheduled to have my motor put back together on Friday and i don't even know if the head is on it's way. Long story short, i've been without my car for a month and a half now and over 5 weeks of it has been just waiting for a head that i was initially told would only only take 10 days to get here. Sorry for the ramblings but i just had to vent and was curious to know if anyone else has had this sort of problems with slowboy. Thanks.
 
Typical SBR.

And whats funny, is that if you wanted to now cancel the order, even though they don't have the head in stock, they would charge you a restocking fee. Bunch of rip offs is what SBR is.
 
Yes, alot of us have.

Vendors reviewed FTW :)
