Keisler Announces Special Offer to Forum Members

For a limited time Keisler Engineering is supporting Forum members with a very special offer. Keisler will include a brand new 11" titanium/aluminum bell housing or a 450ft-lb rated Clutch Kit FREE with every Chevrolet 5-speed order.

The bell housing is a $199 value and comes complete with a steel inspection cover and hardware. Original 621 bell housings are selling for upwards of $300 on the web and do not have the strength or accuracy of the Keisler 621 Bell Housing. This bell will mate the TKO 5-speed to any Chevrolet small block or big block and works with most original linkages (9 o'clock fork position).

Choose the free clutch and receive either at 10.5" or 11" race balanced pressure plate, a fully sprung carbon/copper disc, premium sealed throw out bearing, lube pack and alignment tool. These clutches are our most popular models and are both durable with easy pedal effort.

To take advantage of this special offer order by Friday, November 3rd by calling 865.609.8187 ext 1. Most kits now ship within 24-48 hours. Thank you for supporting the forum and Keisler Engineering.

Well it happened I just got off the phone with a customer who bought a month ago. He wanted a free bellhousing. This current offer excludes all previous sales and any other offers.


Thank you

Gene

 

Dave, not a pot shot on a vendor more of a stab at the guy who called in.

 

If this was not a pot shot as you say about a vendor then why post the company name? So yes this does look like a pot shot which is simply put wrong. You could have said any other company would not offer this but you did not. And how on earth can you say what another company will or will not do. You simply can not. Unless you think you are The Amazing Kreskin lol.

 

This customer last words where "maybe I should just buy from CC5spd from now on" I should have known I could count on you and Dave to chime in. where have you been haven't seen you in a while. by the way where John from Ventura


Listen seriously this was in no way a pot shot at Classic Chevy 5spd

 

Well than thank you for bringing up Classic Chevy and supporting them and recognizing the fact that they are also a fine company with a great product and exceptional service.

 

You should have worked with him..... Looks bad to me. WTF do you have to loose in say splitting the cost. Your talking about a person who once HAD faint in your company.

 

Listen it's like any other company. They offer different promotions all time's of the year.

He didn't ask for a discount he wanted it free.

He didn't give me the oppurtunity to offer anything different before he hung up the phone, and made that comment.


I didnt post anything to pick a fight I just wanted to let everyone know this is not inconjunction with any other offer.

Sorry for the confusion if you want I will be happy to give him one Whats your credit card #

I just returned from the Las Vegas SEMA show where Robert was trying to unload your product. After 6 months and yards of junk parts I finally retrieved my money from your company. I haven't purchased a CC5spd but that would be my choice if I wanted a Tremec modified trans. Richmond 5 speeds fit C1's without any problems (and without the Keisler drivel).
This is supposed to be a forum where members exchange information on problems and venders. Why are you trying to sell product here (and defend your ? reputation) rather than simply being a respectable Supporting vendor like Tom Dewitt?

 

I knew it would not be long. How are you John? How was Sema? I wish
I was there to meet you in person. It would have been great.

We are here to help, several guys have already taken advantage of the good deal on a great product. Also giving forum members a discount is supporting them with there hobby. Did you notice we are a supporting vendor here?

Like I said John this is not a post to cause problems,just give information

John have a Good day!!

 

Speaking of SEMA what do you guys think of this???

I know this is Corvette Forum but this car is just sweeeet
John... I am here trying to help.... Matter of fact I need help with a C2 power steering pump. Have you read that thread? Any thoughts? This guy is between a rock and a hard place and I told him i would try to help. There is a thread I started titled Keisler Customer. PLease, anyone, need help.
Thanks
Richard

 

bad linky in that post, Richard

 

Sorry about that. Try this.... http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll...DATE/610310450

 

Because I'm very interested to purchase a Tremec 5-speed tranny for my little '63, I've been following the many threads and posts here for a long time with regards to determine the best choice of vender to provide the best overall product.

To me, you 'guy's' are falling all over yourselves by being 'follower's' ... rather than leading by positive honest example .

Stuff like: can't provide drive-shafts ... have to wait ... many excuses; venomous words toward a competitor; 'pardon' words to explain why your installation instructions are incorrect ... and the list of discretions goes on and on, etc.

I, for myself, given your sparkling lackluster replies that seem to fall within a 'used-car salesperson mentality' and/or your offerings you make, seem to be very one-dimensional ... kinda like 'let's make all the money we can ... to heck with what some our customers have to endure!'

At this point, I'm quite 'cold' toward the representives of your company and how they/you represent/sell your product. Obviously your product is without question whatsoever . But your follow-through and baloney to explain whatever you seem to need or 'explain' or compensate to completely follow-through with complete customer satisfacrion is wearing very thin ... for me only.

So what is your response to my post? You have to recognize that my post is a challenge to you and your company's integrity ... so, what say you?

Sure, my/this post may be disregarded as a 'for nothing' digression. This is intended to catch you attention .

So again, what say you??

Best Regards,

Pete

How's it going.

We have made strides to fix these problems in the past. its funny to me you post a thread like this, until today I have seen a turn in what forum members are posting here. It all seems to be positive I am sorry you feel that way you do.

Sometimes you can only poke a fat kid with a stick until he gets mad. I feel we have brought something good to the hobby with our product and with any company there are always issue's.

Maybe in the past we didn't handle ourselves right on here
but with the same guys beating you down you can only take so much.

I dont know how you wanted me to respond my guess is that you were hoping I would snap at you. I completely realize what you said in your post.


As for parts missing and instructions its unfortunate that a few posts
have swayed your idea of what we are about. We have thousands of satisfied customers that have installed our transmissions with our instructions and have had great results. Like with anything it could always be better.

I appreiciate your post and I wish you the best, and no matter where you get your 5spd it's still the best thing you can do for your Vette.

Guys, give Gene some credit. He has admitted problems and he has tried to solve those problems. He is a supporting vendor and that pays the light bill on the CF. There are a bunch of supporting vendors but very few of them communicate directly with customers in threads. The fact that he does, tells me that he truely cares what you think. Don't call him out in a public forum because of past problems. If you want to buy his product, do so. If not, then move on. If supporting vendors get hammered in theads, when they are just trying to help, the easy fix is to just stop participating. I think members would benefit more having vendors stick around instead of going away. That's my .02

 

Don't call him out in a public forum because of past problems. If you want to buy his product, do so. If not, then move on.

 

I suspect Gene may be a transplanted New Yorker!! He has the attitude and thick skin to be one, not afraid to jump in when someone trashes them. He seems to be of the same mind set as Doc Rebuild and LICC, let's take care of business and move on. Nothing wrong with that. If you speak to 100 customers of any vendor, you will find at least a few that are ticked off and never buy there again. If it's more than a few they won't be in business long. Keep in mind a few vendors don't want to talk about the weather or kids, simply what do you want and move on.
