MOFOCO Junk - My Experience

- My Experience with MOFOCO. After seeing a post online of my engine build, Roy the owner of MOFOCO, hit me up and then told me to send in my heads to verify they were safe to run, and he would also port match my intakes to the head at no cost. In the end, more damage was done than anything. Now the heads are Junk. Comment your thoughts.

I would definitely get some different heads
Don’t feel bad I almost got some too
I was thinking on getting a set of these heads but I will definitely skip!
I thought about Tim’s heads but heard they take a long time from the time you order them.
Empi heads have good reviews, but I may go with a set from CB Performance for the win.
Best wishes with your engine build!
I got some Tims heads and am very happy with them
This company should absolutely send you a new set
@@lukemurphy243 highly doubt that will happen.
@@VWBaja HE DOES NOT DESERVE NEW HEADS
lol... ALL CAPS MEANS YOU'RE UPSET? Hahaha DO YOU WORK THERE? DO YOU KNOW THEM?
@@lukemurphy243 Right, he’s talking so angry. I bet if that was a set of his heads he wouldn’t be screaming for a replacement.
I feel if that the right thing to do or have done by Ray would have been to replace them with new heads the moment he found out that his guy made a mistake. MOFOCO had every opportunity to truly do the right thing. I have personally emailed and followed up with no less than 4 calls to inquire about my unanswered email. Always was told Ray was not available for one reason or the other and he would be the only person to answer. Each time I was told he would return my call and I still haven’t heard anything back.
Sadly MOFOCO had a golden opportunity to gain respect back in the Volkswagen community and they missed it.
So you send in dual ports, and you get single ports back
Hahahhaa
He should have sent you a set of new heads machined correctly.
I dont think that would ever happen. He could not even fix what he f'ed up.
@@VWBaja Which heads are going to buy now?
Poor Clarence! He needs a good new set!
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle Probably Panchitos..
@@slingbuzz9148 yep.. Panchitos maybe??
I'm curious to hear what you all think. Comment and share you story about mofoco.
LOL REALLY
I acquired a set of mofoco 041 heads from a buddy of mine, I can tell you I was not impressed with the machine work, and I should know because I've been a machinist since highschool. The valve spring seating surface was unbelievable 🙁 I was able to fix them to usable condition only because I have tooling to do it. Stay clear of those heads.
Why didn’t you just get heads from CB?
Absolutely gutted for you, My experience here in the UK is that I have a set of Mofoco heads on my Bug engine, bought 5 years ago, but had it lying around for a couple of years, due to things like Covid etc. This engine came with these heads fitted, and although I've done hardly any miles in that time, after standing that time, the engine was re-commissioned and the heads were actually OK and I've had no problems. Most recently for the 2007cc engine I'm going to build I went with CB's Panchito's, and manifolds, and then had them worked by a real professional in SD, they're a joy to behold 😊probably not what you want to hear, but I really hope it all works out for you
Empi GTV-2 heads. Get them in the porting that you want. Stock, stage 1, 2, or 3. You can also get the manifolds to match. All cnc ported. Smaller chamber will require flycut. Good luck. I've eyeballed Mofoco for a long time on the internet, but it's a coin toss. Half say they are great, and the other half say customer service is shit. Bummed for you...
@@clintonwilloughby7606 Thanks for the heads up, I will look into those too. 🤙
You were warned. Read more on the Samba.
@@lukemurphy243 Working with what I had. Yeah..the Samba has a lot on the subject.
