That is Loydes biggest problem,, he is to nice to folks and spends to much of his time helping which puts him way behind I have seen some of them who blasted him after he bend over backwards but they got pretty pushy on his time. Keep up the good work Loyde. Rick




I am not trying to make this sound like a lovefest for Loyde's customer service, but I agree. He bent over backwards for me the times I dealt with him. When things were not going well with a mod I was doing several years back he spent a lot of time on the phone talking me thru it. He did not do my swap, but he took the time to talk me thru some wiring issues... I thought that was above and beyond.

Lloyd we have had no problems what so ever with each other or atleast not that I know of.
darkhorizon I have sat quiet for too long, for the longest time you were kissing up to me e-mailing me quite often asking for info and trying to get me to send my over flow to you. I had no problem with this although I did not appreciate seeing you trying to come off as some kind of 3800 Guru using other peoples info, because you are far from it. Your work from what I have seen is butcher work at best you take every short cut possible and brag about how fast you get things done. You are basically a parott that just repeats what ever you hear with no concern what so ever if the info is correct or not.
At this point I would reccomend you shut your mouth and stop your fingers from typing any more crap before you make any more of a fool of your self. Dan



WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!

What work have I even documented here, this is loydes deal he is running his mouth about stuff I have never staked any claim to! All emails sent to you were not question emails, but mearly conversation peices, about possibly setting up a small wiring harness business. I first humbly asked if you had extra work to give me, as I had no intentions on cornering the market you were in, and in the end I decided NOT to do anything, so I therefore have done NO work for anyone ever in the history of the internet.

EVERY JOB I HAVE DONE FOR MONEY WAS NEVER POSTED IN ANY FOURM EVER. THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY anyone could have seen heard or looked at my "work". This video loyde is running around with is over a year and half old, from back when I did my very first swap, starting it for the first time. At that time I have one done work on stock cars with stock motors swaps, and things were obviously NOT done.

SAYING THAT YOU HAVE SEEN MY WORK AND IT WAS BAD IS PURE SLANDER AND THREATENS THE BUSINESS THAT I HAVE CURRENTLY. IF YOU PLAN ON STANDING BY THAT STATEMENT, PLEASE BACK IT UP WITH PROFOUND PROOF.

IMHO, you seem to attack and discredit his worth and effort to the SC3800 Fiero community when he offers advice, yet when he ask you to show where he's damaged someone's swap, there is nothing presented. You also make it sound as if he is rampant in his incompetence.





I have never attacked or discredited anything that I have not experienced directly from loyde. I had a local fiero enthusiast with a loyde PCM and a loyde wiring harness aproch ME for help after loyde gave him the cold sholder time and time again. I was able to offer him tuning by a competent tuner, and help fixing his burnt wiring harness.

There are more than a few posts stating that loyde is NOT punctual with his wiring harness jobs, and I know that from my local fiero friend also, along with the countless posts. I dont get where loyde attacking me is turning around into me atatcking him, this thread started with NOTHING I did not post here, nor did I say anything please quote me and prove me wrong, or ask cliff to ban me for being a complete moron please.

Might I direct your attention to page one where Loyde asked a question:

There is the proof. You said it yourself that the work you did a year ago remains the same.

Not being punctual is not being incompetent, it simply means he might not get something to somene timely. I've not had that problem, but I've heard others have. There are several post where you jump in after Loyde gave advice with remarks like, do no tlisten to Loyde, he is known for ruining swaps. What swaps?

As far as quoting you questioning his competence, how about this one:

Now I have to ask the question. Did all the stuff you had to fix result from Loyde's incompetence, or might the owner wanted something after the fact and was not willing to wait for Loyde to answer his calls? As far as the PCM not being tuned at all. Where is the data to back that. Was your rescue work with just this one person this one time, or is it a repeated event. You make it sound as if it is the norm, and people come to you when they can not get Loyde to fix his screw up.

Now that is my perception of what you write in your post. remember you asked me to show/quote you.

who are you, and what busniess do you have commenting on a year old video that I posted as I started my first fiero project? In that video, the cradle was not bolted to the car, nor was any suspension on, and even limited body panels, so what does that video have to do with anything?

I am really getting frustrated at this, anyone else that feels they have to pick a fight with me, please PM me for my phone number.
