They do not have a good reputation for quality or standing behind their product. I had 2 friends who worked there at any given time for a while. Engines are practically thrown together to meet deadlines with not so much as a prayer they will last for any length of time.

Ask around, they are not regarded well at all.

no reason to apologize, you were offering from personal experience of a friend. They do however have a crappy reputation overall, as is noted on every car board I'm on.

My .02!

H leadfoot!

All I can say is "You get what you pay for!" In my experience if a price for a motor is too good to be true! It is! You will regret that "Super Duper, Once in a lifetime" deal! Jody and Jeff can both build you motors that you will have not one ounce of regret! I say flip a coin and give it to whoever wins!
