Default Kearney's top notch

Was putting a 35 in Dearborn form,bought a set of Kearney heads from a guy off ford barn for 1300.00 instead of paying the full 1500.00 from Kearney. Was told they were put on and took right back off because the engine had a other problem. But the heads were ok.Any how the car has only been pulled in and out trailer between Charlotte and Hershey and noticed a little antifreeze in like the tea pot area of plug 5 .I cleaned out and watched a tiny bead of antifreeze barely leaked out.I called Kearney and told how I got the heads and had no receipt. They said to send them the head,they pressure tested and sent me a new head.Cost me my , head gasket and 80 shipping and time taking apart and putting back together .But stood tall behind their product .Thank you, you're company is a class act.

Wow! Now THAT is what "customer service" means! THAT is also the definition of a "class act"! THAT is what it means to stand behind your product. And, it's quite possible Kearney "never heard of that problem before", yet still put the customer FIRST...... no BS, and no excuses.....PRICELESS! DD
