Yep and its the only way to do it...

Unfortunately the hassles and the legal charges drive the price up for the customer...

If it gets to the point that I have to do this for all my customers I'll go back to working on aircraft. Its pretty dan sad when a man's word isn't worth anything-

Its not any particular engine- Its a slot of time for me to personalize an engine that you want and ultimately NED to achieve your goals...

Anywhere from 7K clear to 14.5K could be the end result.. This slot was for a 2270 engine that was going to have about 80 hours dedicated to it for a price tag of about 12K fully dressed and 100% ready to rock- All dyno tested, balanced and blueprinted.

Install and go- no guesswork.

Hell even the clutch and pressure plate (new) are included

And you are getting a FREE 2 liter core from my flaked out customer- Thats worth 1K alone!

Sure it is- The heads easily sell for 500 bucks as cores... People SCREAM for them at that price al the time..

BTW- Thank god this customer flaked out before I did any more work on the engine- thats the only reason I can even keep this slot open- because I never got started fully...

BUT I think its gone now ;-)
