Took it back without even getting to use it and now he's saying it's a whole different problem and of course wants more money to fix again. Horrible service..

Acie said this was an ongoing problem OMC was having and said he would get it fixed under warranty. I was floored. Saved me over $2000 new starter new stater new flywheel and new water valve. fixed it in a day. Got out under $300. These guys are awesome. So naturally I took it in when I couldn't get it started. Not sure what it was I think it was the solenoid not sure. They called me same day said it was ready for pick up, under $100. On my way to go get it after this post. Nice to have competent and fair people like this to deal with.

Interestingly I found out They do not know what a “Used Valve” looks like & put a Used Set of Heads on one engine. This led to a complete tear down at Nickens Brothers where a Crack in one of the Victory heads was discovered along with a bad cam shaft. Victory did pay for the rework of the heads, but to add insult to injury, I was charged full list price plus for the cam shaft. What Really concerns me is the engines had 350 hours on them & with the installation of the bad heads by Victory, it probably would have been a catastrophic engine failure (of which would not have been their fault of course). The other issue I had was Victory rebuilt an XR drive & it lasted about ten (10) hours – Lost a complete upper & again was Not Their Problem. Nice folks, but be careful as to the work Victory claims to do.
