yep, matt knows them personally and has worked out of their shop. Ive heard nothing but good things about them. If anyone can get you a deal on these, he's the person to talk to.

alright guys just talked to scott from FTY, check it out this is the exact e-mail

If you priced out all my stuff individually, you're looking at over $1200 in parts alone. Machine work? Around $200. There's $1500 right there and that doesn't include assembly. I'm telling you, I don't make ANY money off this block.

If you purchased 10 blocks from us, the BEST I can do is like $50 off the whole order. I seriously can't sell the things any cheaper than I already do. I also wouldn't be able to start building them without a few cores from you because of the quantity.


*If you're dead serious on 10 block purchases, I'll talk to my machine guys and see what I can do. If I get 10 blocks from you (or close) and a substantial down payment (like $10,000-$12,000) for the parts I need to order, then I may be able to work something better out. I can't guarantee
anything, though.*

-Scott

~~~so it looks like it's not gunna work out, oh well.
