Default Sun Tuned

Anyone know if Sun Tuned (Bob) is still doing distributors? I sent a PM to him a few weeks ago with no reply. He did a distributor for me a couple of years ago and I was pleased with the results. Need another one done. Ideas?

Thanks, Jimmy Rhodes, Waco, Texas

I think (think) Bill over on Pontiac Street Performance can do one for you. I read somewhere where Bob was off duty for a while.

Hopefully Bob has moved on to telling lies about delivery time on his work to people other than Ponitac guys!!!

"I sent a PM to him a few weeks ago with no reply."
And what does that tell you? Been there,done that

Bill is a great guy,I'll vouch for him,though he has not done a distributor for me.
I had Chris Carlson up in MN do mine,he can rebuild as well as recurve- 218 686 2574
Reasonable priced,and got it back to me right away. hint,hint

I had him go through my distributor recently. Fair price and great communication. I would use him again.

Talking Sun Tuned

Wow, you guys are a tough crowd!! Have any of you thought he may have a family, a job and issues that skew his schedule to return a distributor in a week or so?

As David said, I believe he said he was taking some time off to regroup in the new year.

Besides, your cars are your hobbies not everyday drivers; lighten up on the guy!!

My $.02!!!

My car is a daily driver! All that is required is to be honest about lead times. I don't mind waiting but I HATE when someone says two weeks and then completely forgets about you...

My $.02!!!
