Default CannibalV8 - Buyer beware!!

The pictures reflect what my new CannibalV8 5.0l BG Signature engine with "turnkey" installation looks like after just over 1000 miles & $12,000.00 invested. Steve Johnson personally cranked up the RPM's in front of me telling me "that's where the engine was happy", to cover the oil light & bad rebuild of the front cover. When I demanded it be repaired later that evening & the following day, he blamed it on the pressure sensor and told me not to worry about it as the pressure was good by mechanical gauge, and to put a piece of tape over the light if it bothered me; the oil pump has subsequently failed. He took my good (non-leaking) radiator & installed a replacement (leaking) radiator, padded the bill with numerous now known not to be true to add-on's to jack up the final bill. Now, a month after he initially agreed to repair the engine at his cost and make it right under warrant (both verbally and in writing), he just avoids my calls, replies with meaningless emails and texts, or promises to call back later, but never does.
