I don't know bro. For that much money you think you could deal with JE directly. Isn't that what Dado did?

Unfortunately, it's not JE problem and I doubt you will hear from them. it may ultimately be their product, but you didn't purchase directly from them so you're gonna have to deal with Top End Performance.
Top End Performance needs to get it's act together and refund your money or replace the pistons, their lack of response and action is pathetic and nothing more than shoddy business.Comment

I have had both decent and bad, well mostly bad dealings w/ TEP. They gladly took payment for a set of LCA bushings for my 510 but after the vendor failed to produce them, it took months, and I mean months of me calling and finally forcing them to refund my money. I hope the OP gets his back.You say "Where are your other two cylinders?"
I say "Where's your other camshaft?"

For the Lawyer type, would sending a certified letter do anything ?

I just talked to Steve Nelson on the phone. Great guy and willing to bend over backwards for his customers. Chris you are misrepresenting your side of the story to say the least.Comment

I called up Top End to experience for myself the horrible customer service I have been hearing so much about on here, only to have a overly rational and reasonable Steve Nelson answer the phone.
These pistons were built exactly to customer specs. Even if the customer didn't know what he was spec'ing.Comment
