As a Veteran I am a supporter of SBOs, but after working with Mike Go Time Seman at Notorious Auto Designs last year was the worst experience in my lifetime We spent approximately 20K on a 383 Stroker and a 700R4 with over drive through these guys and if I could turn back time, I would have went to another shop to get our classic done right the first time Another warning of caution, Mike likes his $$$ upfront before starting the project on your vehicle and if you challenge him about the $$$
He will get pissed and you will feel very uncomfortable because he has your classic and $$$

Timeline - 383 Stroker with Edelbrock heads
Quote July 2018
Classic dropped to Notorious Auto Designs - Aug 2018
350 SBC Chevy removed August 2018
Engine completed November 2018 a few weeks before Good Guys Scottsdale
Numerous oil leaks and wiring issues
Paid for Painless wiring, found loose wires throughout engine bay
Firewall Cut to install 383 Stroker Why?
Wrong Alternator Bracket was installed outward bracket instead of an inner above valve cover bracket
Install a cheesy battery terminals when I had a battery disconnect switch
Parts Never return - New Starter, Brand New Valve Covers, Battery switch

Timeline - 700R4 with over drive
Quote: January 2019
Classic dropped to Notorious Auto Designs - February 2019
Promised 1 week to install custom built 700R4
Transmission installed 2 weeks, required additional parts
Refuse to delivery Classic to residence shop too busy with other projects
Speedometer cable was not install as part of transmission quote
Inform to have Dick's Speed O Tach install for an additional charge
700R4 leaks more than the 350 Turbo on our garage floor
Mike Go Time Seman recommend getting the speedometer working before taking care of the transmission leaks with the 700R4

We decided to take our classic to another shop to finish what Notorious Auto Designs could not do properly to make our investment more enjoyable on the weekends
