Hi there.
Is this the guy in PA that was going under the eBay screen name, Screaming_914,... or something like that (I think he might of changed his eBay screen name to ripping*** something)?
The only reason I ask is because I've had 2 separate people that have bought "Running Rebuilt low mileage" engines from him for ~$2500-$3000 respectively, and both had issues.
I know this for a fact because one of this seller's engines I inspected and was able to get running, while the other one I tore down completely and declared DOA on arrival.
The engine I got running for a fellow 914World member was said to of been a complete running 2.0L with EFI and 150 +/- a few psi compression across all 4 cylinders. After inspection it was found to have compression pressures of 115,120,80, & 150. This in itself was not a problem as the engine was used, but the issue came from the fact that the seller lied to the buyer telling him it was a very low mileage rebuilt unit that was pulled from a rusted out running car. The reality was that it was obviously some used long block that was slapped together with a bunch of parts that he had laying around,(including a junk flywheel and a distributor drive gear that was dropped in 180 degrees off).
The second engine from this same seller was one that was dropped off at my shop. It was a complete 2.0L painted in red and silver and was setup with a single progressive carb. The engine was supposed to of been a very recent rebuild with a carbed cam that again was pulled from a "running car". After inspection the engine was found to have one dead cylinder, 2 with a 120 psi, and one with almost 190 psi. After a full dis-assembly I found that the engine had a junk stock cam and a crap load of fresh silicone on a bunch of used seals.
The worst part of the engine was the compression issue and the reason for the varied #s was astounding! I found that the side of the motor with the 120 psi reading was due to the fact that someone had recently stacked 2 head gaskets on top of each other. The other side of the motor was even worse because it had no head gaskets at all and (1) flat top Euro piston, (the other 3 pistons were all low compression dished bus pistons).
Both buyers also had the exact same experience as you with responses from this guy. When they contacted him about their concerns he humored them for a while and then basically told them to just F*** off.
Feel free to re-post this on the World board if you'd like. If this is the Screaming_914 guy from eBay then I know from personal experience that he's a scammer and liar because I've seen his ads and then seen the actual product 1st hand. If so then I think he needs to explain why so many people are having issues if he's an "honest" seller, but if this is a different individual then I guess he's owed an apology.
Mike
buyers should always be cautious with sellers who are lurkers with zero posts.
period.

New Ebay account appears to be
ripping9142011 ( 11)
for anyone interested
this is a very simple issue, i florence hunter purschased the buisness from my son, he had problems, all the cars and parts are on my property at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 18042, my phone number is XXX-XXX-XXXX, i purschased all the cars, all the parts,. and since it is my property, this is where i do buisness from, i created another ebay acount, i paid an old debt of his just to be able to do that, my ebay acount is ripping9142011, under the name florence hunter, my feedback score is 100 percent positive even to overseas sales, my husband is charles hunter, 78 years old,i have had some recent buisness on the club, i sold a perfect dash pad, i sold a leather stiched steering wheel, i have never done nothing wrong to anyone, nor will i ever, this guy that is saying all this stuff about me is way out of line, i am calling mr hussey first thing in the morning and then we will see who is wrong, can one single person out their in this entire country say that me florence hunter has ever wronged you in any way,let them come forward, i will not back down, i never done anybody any harm, my buisness dealings are straight forward transparent,as my pay pal acount testifies to, i hired two people to work the shop, and i deal with the pending customers and all sales,so you really need to investigate the facts, you have nothing to say about me, you and i have never ever had a buisness transaction ever, i bought a buisness and i am running my buisness with the upmost integrity, you belive you can hold other people acountable for sombody elses actions, well in the real world it does not work like that, and i will not allow you to continue saying, the things you are, and when i call mr hussey and send him the buisness sale receipt, what are you going to do, you have let your anger or whatever other issues you have, cloud your judgment, you nor anybody has the right to treat innocent people in this way, so you want a fight, that is exactley what you will get, and i will promose you that everything will be made transparent on the club, nothing to hide, you should be ashamed of yourself,
This needs to be locked as well as rippings other ads.
Several other forums I am on will not even allow a person to post for sale ads until they have a certain number of posts. It tends to keeps things a little more honest.
Ripping, as a " business owner " you should be aware that defending yourself by repeatedly calling someone a dumbass, is not going to fair well with potential customers. If what you say is true, you need to contact an admin about this situation, and have action taken against MGPHOTO, who for what it is worth, has been here for a while, and his credibility will take presidence with most. You're off to a very bad start here
FWIW Calling George Hussey will get you nowhere on this site. George owns the CLUB site, not this one, and is in fact not welcome here by many.
For anyone interested please review picture #3 from this eBay link dated from 8/17/11 and please tell me if this appears to be a 70+ something year old woman's,... or man's hand;
http://www.ebay.com/itm/130562278063
Something with this entire scenario seems a bit askew and I believe that a little more explanation with a lot less childish name calling is needed. I can understand a situation in which a parent would aid their child by helping to fulfill prior debts, but I can't understand how photo #3 exists if that child is now gone and living in another state.
It will be interesting to see the next installment on this, , and now I have to get back to the books and feel bad about wasting time on this .
this is a very simple issue, i florence hunter purschased the buisness from my son, he had problems, all the cars and parts are on my property at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 18042, my phone number is XXX-XXX-XXXX, i purschased all the cars, all the parts,. and since it is my property, this is where i do buisness from, i created another ebay acount, i paid an old debt of his just to be able to do that, my ebay acount is ripping9142011, under the name florence hunter, my feedback score is 100 percent positive even to overseas sales, my husband is charles hunter, 78 years old,....
this is charles william hunter i am 78 years old, anybody in this forum call me now at XXX-XXX-XXXX i want to tell you the truth about this guy thats running his mouth, i want the 914 club to know exactley how much of a 914 guy he really is and show you what he really doesnt know, i remember this guy calling after he got his motor, he was saying the motor has play in the flywheel pulley, i sold the motor to him minus the flywheel, wich he was aware of, this young fellow did not even know enough that their are shims that go in to take the end play out when he installs a flywheel, he started bitching pissing and moaning, he was aware of it,this motor was taken out of a running car that i drove, i built more of these motors than any of you people on this club,i have been building air cooled before half of you people were even born, i built air cooled vw motors for ultra light airplanes,decamed motors, somthing half of you know it alls cant even understand, i am telling you like it is, and i really dont give a shit about your club,i made my buisness in 1963 and my buisness will run just fine without any of you, what you have is a bunch of know it alls that dont know shit, and the guy who says he took apart a motor of mine that was truely from me and it was wrong, i challenge any day of the week to compair your knowledge against mine, so big mouth you better be sure the motor was built by me CHARLES WILLIAM HUNTER, my wife tells me you dont like capital letters,well i just left some for you, the problem here is you have a bunch of people who read a little in a book and all of a sudden their air cooled experts,half of you peoiple could not tell each other how to put rings on a piston, i veiw your forums, and i sit back and say to myself, they must actually be sitting their with a book in their habd reading from it, azample, half of you fucken know it alls, still dont know how to check an aircooled motor for spark, without strarting it or turning it over untill you wash out the cylinders and you create another fucken problem, example look in the forum now and listen to all the book fucken worms trying to tell a guy how to duiagnose his motor with fuel running out the muffler, go ahed and keep cranking it and look for problems fucken book worms with no mechanical mind, half of you dont even know how a motor runs, you can keep your derbys on your head and keep bullshitting people and go to bed truely knowing that you dont know shit, so asshole with your comment that i would build a motor with head gaskets piled, i challenge you to build a motor and i will run you in a quarter mile title for title if your not willing shut your mouth, my wife will not be apologizing to anybody for somthing she nor i did, anybody who wants to buy good parts or have a motor built come see me, untill then, the book worms and the club can go fuck yourselves, i forgot more about air cooled than half of you will ever know, and another thing pick your fights with my son, i am damn proud of him he went through some hard times fought back and he is a fucken winner in my book, to the guy that everybody sends their motors to, why the hell would all these people send you motors, and your not the guy selling them to people, you never had a motor built by me come across your bullshit fake desk,
1) First, No offense was meant on this end from me to you, or to your wife, and I truly appreciate your unintentional compliment of Einstein, , which of course was meant to be an insult. The reason I commented on your post was because I merely wished to resolve a series of questions which surround the Hunter Automotive profile. The problem is that issues like this create problems for ALL sellers since it creates a high level of buyer dis-trust from items being sold which are not as described.
2) The fact is that YES, I have worked on 2 of the engines which came from the Screaming914/Ripping9142011/Hunter914 facility and I personally saw both eBay advertisements prior to receiving the actual engines. The facts that I stated about the conditions of both are exactly what I discovered, no less, no more. Although mgphoto's engine was marginal at best, the red and silver engine which was sold to a gentleman in Long Beach about 2 years ago definitely needs an explanation. I am not claiming that you were the builder/seller, but if it came from your facility then you should have some idea surrounding the reasons for the complications after the sale, and why a refund/compensation was not given.
3) This is not second hand information because as I stated I saw the eBay ad and also spoke to a gentleman at the Hunter facility to ask some questions about the red and silver engine prior to dis-assembly. I was given the same story as the buyer in Long Beach about the great condition of the engine which was obviously false.
4) The reason people don't buy engines from me is because they simply CAN'T. I only build engines between my engineering classes and therefore I can only produce about 6 a year. Also, most are already per-ordered and have a 3-6 month lead time. Therefore I have to turn away a lot of work because I just don't have the time to do a proper job.
5) You are right, I am a book worm, that's the only way you can get through an intense engineering program that has a 9/10 dropout rate and learn how things work. The difference though is that I've also been building anything that moves including engines since I was 9 years old, yes I said that correctly, 9, so therefore I have the hands on experience to go with the book smarts. Just for your notes my 1st build was a flat head 6 cyl Continental engine and since then I've built over a dozen N-14 and Big cam Cummins diesel engines, a half dozen Cat 3406B diesel engines, dozens of flat head LPG, Nissan, Toyota, GM, Ford, and Dodge engines, a few Detroit and Perkins engines, and recently over 3-4 dozen air cooled VW/Porsche engines.
6) You're also right, I probably couldn't put 3 whole engines together if ALL of the parts were mixed up, that would be just HORRIBLE. I mean trying to identify 1.7L and 2.0L rods by a forging design, or a 5mm crank pin diameter difference, boy that would be way too complicated for me to understand,... or even worse maybe I'd have to try to identify a solid from hydraulic camshaft profile by the ring count on the cam casting,... or notice 8mm and 10mm rocker arm adjuster screws,... or calculate valve lift, or deck height, or a compression ratio, oh my head is just spinning .
But wait! Here's a link to one of my OLD ads which shows just SOME of my stuff, I think with my last count I had 16 914s, so I guess that means I'm just a small fry that has no idea of what I'm doing,...

Listen, I have nothing against you or your facility but I do have an issue when people are getting taken advantage of. From the grammatical style in your posts it is quite evident that whoever you are you are most likely the same individual, and I feel that you're using a different name to try and fool people. Just review your posts, 1st you say that you're a 71 year old mother that took over for her troubled son, then you're a 78 year old father that is an air-cooled expert, with both of these you said that you had NO knowledge of mgphoto's engine issues and everything in the NEW business is now Kosher. Then in a later post you state that you remember speaking to mgphoto about his engine issue. I don't know a lot about Psychology but I do know that it's a lot easier to remember the facts if they're the truth because lies are difficult to remember.
A word of advice. If you want to lay this reputation issue to rest for once and all then you need to start supplying some consistent answers without the use of name calling or insults. I find it very hard to believe that a 70+ year old couple that ran a successful business for over 30 years would resort to name calling so soon in a conversation. Issues arise with used parts, that's just the nature of the beast, but calling your customers names and using foul language is quite unacceptable. Also, it doesn't matter how many times you change your screen name the "Interweb" will track you. A simple Google search links together Screaming914, Porsche914huntersbuilt, Ripping914, etc, etc and shows all the issues associates with past transactions. If you're going to win over the 914 crowd you'll have to lay to rest the past issues with your facility and prove how it's changed. Most of the guys here are very willing to live and let live as long as they know the past won't be repeated. They understand life's issues and its downfalls but if they feel that they're getting the wool pulled over their eyes then they'll be extremely unreceptive to your posts.
This conversation has obviously become juvenile and after this post I have no interest in continuing this discussion because unfortunately you are either unable or unwilling to supply any consistent answers. I also have no interest in "racing for pinks" because I'm not James Dean or the Fonz, and for your records I don't have a "bullshit desk" but I do have a "steel workbench" that has had 2 of the Hunter facility engines in it.
--------------(Posted below is the PM received from Ripping914)---------------------
Maybe we got rid of this vermin!
Ok, ya'll need a timeout ...
Calling out someone is one thing, the heavy mudslinging is something we do not appreciate.
And by "we", i mean the whole admin team.
