Default Nelson racing 454 engine

Hi guys,

Looking for a high performance and reliable engine for my stang. I found this one from Nelson Racing engines. I know he produce some wicked engines but I want to know if someone has experience with this type of small block?

Thanks!

Damn, that sucks to read. The guys didn't answered my mails about ordering an engine, it all makes sense now.

Any guys know high end engine builders?
I want the following for my stang:
- Small block
- Fuel injection or supercharger
- Approx 750 hp
- Reliable as a daily driver

And offcourse a good looking innovated engine...

Regards

They've been for SEMA and possibly on the road there or at the show.

Can I ask why you want a daily driver with race track hp? How many miles/km do you expect to put on the car a year/month? I'm assuming Belgium's roads are frequently damp and that kind of hp in the wet isn't much fun without traction control. When you say reliable what is your definition of reliable? Motors putting out that kind of power have much higher service requirements than 450-500 hp motors.

That's said Thompsen Automotive is one of your best choices.

Hi sir,
To be honest, I'm thinking about participate a large trip with sportscars (modball), kinda Gumball but less expensive. And not only that but also because I'm just addicted to hp... I have on this moment a Roush 427R in my stang and I can drive it like I stole it but you all know how it goes.
I know this engine is really reliable, you can take it out to everywhere...

The Nelson engines look incredible and are high end engines, it would look amazing in my car...
