Redline engine builders

Has anyone done business with redline cam and crank, or redline engine builders. They took over engbldrs work load after he got out of it.

Waiting in a tracking number for a head and cam that was paid for, 10 days later no tracking number, no email, and no one picks up when you call. Also their voicemail box is full so you can’t leave a message.

Maybe you need to call your bank and tell them the same stuff and get the transaction canceled. I've owned a body shop and when parts took longer than expected I would call the customer. And the supplier would also call me and tell me there was a delay.

Did you ever get the parts? I ordered from them before I read this, and I want to let everyone know what to expect if they use redline for parts. When you order it says you will receive an email shortly. You don’t, ever. After a few days I called. Just like you I got a full voicemail, so no message. I already decided I was going to cancel. When I went to log on to their website, my account was deleted COMPLETELY. I reported them to my bank. Luckily I will be refunded. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH REDLINE CRANKS AND CAM or REDLINE ENGINE BUILDERS!!!!!!

So, I have to retract that last post. The company reached out to me and explained the situation and sent my parts priority mail. The owner Bill has been grinding cams for 30+ years and doesn’t have a person knowledgeable enough to answer questions over the phone so that’s why no one answers. If bill answered the phone no cams would get done. I get it. The only reason I overreacted is because of all the scam crap that has been going on online. They might be slow to get back to you, but they are a legit business and from what I hear they make top notch cams.

LOL I just read your review on Yelp! So what was the end result, because I am literally about to order a Torker cam for my setup.

I need a decent Stage 1 torquer head also for my 22RE, blew the head gasket after 13 years of hard driving, but good maintenance so the next thing to upgrade on my engine is the stock head. I will post my experience if I end up going with this shop.

I bought a cam through them and they were friendly and the cam still looks like new. I'd recommend them.

How the heck did you get a hold of the shop? I have called a few times, always voice mail and mail box full like posted earlier. I sent two emails, no response. I would love a performance head and an EFI pro cam or RV cam since I have no low end at all in my ride with 4.10 gears.

Have the money to spend and my head gasket blew a week ago. If I am opening this engine up after 14 years, I want to upgrade everything else I need while it is apart.
