Haha, this is something I hear all to often. Reaching mike is near impossible, let alone getting parts from him. At that he's completely unprofessional in many ways and all you'll ever hear about is his junk and him bragging about it even though no one can get it.
Seth hanning from Texas, has been waiting 2 years on a Monster pump after having issues after a week of running and sending it back to get fixed. If he can get ahold of mike, he gets the typical run around.
John Robins from the east coast bought a pump as well same story ran it for a bit it junked itself sent it back for repair same 2 year going run around.
2 guys, 2 junk pumps after a week of running and 2 years waiting, no running pump, no junk pump, no money, back in hand.
Last I knew you couldn't even get trans parts out of him either, beside why'd you want them if you can get a converter refreshed, his ATS copy output fixed when it breaks as I've seen many,many of them from him do. His "big" input shaft I watched break at the NADM race over in Ohio by the stainless truck... Doesn't that truck have all mikes junk on it to?.... Or should I say had? Because last I seen posted they took his injectors out and made more power... When I seen it at Rudy's rumour had it floating around there all day was that they bought a whole new trans just to make the event because mike was screwing them around and was the reason they didn't make the indy nhrda race they normally are always on top at.
Titian diesel from AZ drove all the way to his chicken coop in Ohio after waiting over a year for motor parts he sent to have work done. Not worth the 2 day drive IMO. To pick them up and have done elsewhere.
Brandon Overmeyer has had a converter over at mikes for a dogs age with no luck.
Gus farmer waited a year to get mikes topfeeds , year later after getting them finally got the lines required.
Customer trucks sit at his shop 2+ years to get even worked on that stories told all to often.
Take it for what its worth, the truth don't lie.
All you ever hear about is how his parts are broke, at his shop to be fixed with no luck of him answering his phone or fixing it. Living not far from his shop I hear all these great things. I'd never buy a thing from the guy. Its nice to see other places starting to make good rods and vp's so maybe the industry can be taken care of in that aspect of the market.
