More like customer NO service . They have had my engine for repairs for 8 months . The silicone filler came off the crank as i've seen about 20 do. I only got 3 quarts for 300 bucks. To say i am pissed is an understatement !!!

Trinity Support
 
I don't know about the rest of you, but I think Chad from Trinity is THE person to talk to over there. He has helped me out a few times with my old extech. I do have to admit that I haven't seen him post as frequently as before the big move but you should at least try to reach out to him.

He seems like a stand up guy.

Chad will take care of you. Just give them a call and ask for him.

Looks like you have an on-road head now.. JK

Don't know if you have this resovled yet or not, but get the company you purchased from involved it will help a ton.. Especially if it is A-Main.. A-main helped get an issue resolved for a buddy of mine on this engine back in April of 2009..

I really don't wanna go back through this whole thread to find out which is the best pipe for the .24, so I'm gonna ask it again, although I know it's been answered..

a local guy has convinced me to get the Trinity .24 for my D8T. He is running one in a MBX6T and getting around 12 minutes run time with JP6 pipe and making goobs of bottom end, and decent top end.. Out track is really tight, and only one short place to air one out.. He has the pre-run, I am looking at the full-mod version for that little extra punch and slightly better run time.. I'm heavier on the throttle than him usually..

Anything better than a JP6 for run time, I know power is relative to the guy driving? BTW his temps are under 200 everytime he runs it.. I know cause we pit for each other if we aren't in the same heat or main..

I was told last week by a team driver that Chad and Trinity/Epic have parted ways.

That's the same old song & dance i have gotten the past 8 months. I paid 300 bucks for my engine & the silicone filler came off the crank after 3 quarts. Needless to say 300 dollars for 3 quarts & i am pissed !!
