I want to bring everyone up to speed regarding this Marks Performance engines. I had a low mileage 1972 400 with 727 hooked to it. I listed it on Craigslist for $500.00 and have had several inquiries right away. I received a call from Mark who proceeded to insult me and tell me he is buying big blocks all over for $100.00 and that I was out of my mind. I thanked him and said sorry I could make that work but would consider it if no one else wanted it. He kept calling me back and raising his offer but still couldn't make it work. I was extremely polite but declined to want to deal with him as he became vulgar, abusive and down right insulting. Then came the non stop texts, threats and abusive language. HE WILL NOT STOP. I asked him to leave me alone and just move on but it seems that he can't. For crying out loud just let it go. What is with this guy. My advise is to stay away from anything to do with him. I looked him up on eBay and seems he has had a few unsatisfied customers and looked him up on BBB and nothing but bad reviews. Now I am letting all of you know about this guy. BEWARE
 
Amazing..........I'm guessing he's the quintessential, self entitled, ( deleted by staff ). Didn't get his way so is throwing a huge tantrum. You know the world owes him that engine/trans for $100. I would love to see a psych profile on this nut! LOL

I dont know what your problem is....

I purchase vintage 1966 through 1969 426 Hemis for $100 to $300 all day long...
I can get 400 CI and 440 CI blocks all day long for $100 and $200 dollars too, just like Mark's....

LOL
Just kidding

Well, thanks for the warning.
Sounds like he is being unreasonable AND bordering on harassment.
 
Sounds like a major douche-bag, who wants that early 400 block.
 
If you need an engine built, I am just 3 hrs South of him... :eusa_whistle: :icon_wink:
 
That's why I don't list ads on CL using my cell phone. Almost dumped my land line but glad I didn't because it's worth the extra few bucks just for reasons like that. Send him a text that if he doesn't cease and desist, you will take further action. Better yet, send it to him by certified mail!

"A Cease & Desist Letter is often times the first step to asking an individual, or a business, to stop an illegal activity. The purpose of the letter is to threaten further legal action if the behavior does not stop."

The sad truth is that tactic does work a lot of the time. You badger someone until they get so tired of you they throw in the towel. If it didn't work, he wouldn't do it.
 
Who is this 'staff' guy? :D

I dunno....but man is he good!! :eusa_dance:

How did this guy end up with pigs (boars) in his engine??? This Mark sounds like a real stand-up guy :rolling::rolling::rolling:
 
For those of us that refuse to participate in that FB nonsense, what is being said about Marks? A short synopsis will be quite adequate!
