engine builder recommendation

[jerrymrc]

Guys,

does anyone know a good engine builder in the area? I'm not opposed to a fresh build and doing a swap/upgrade, or to build the stocker from a '66 mustang into something with better performance and reliability

If I was going to build a Ford then I would be looking at someone that is good with them. Just my two cents.

Look and see what "Crate" engines are available from Summit, Ford etc. When I built my Nova a few years back it was actually more economical.

Looks like for a Ford about 3500 to 4K.

I went that route for my cobra and not looking to spend 7-10K again. And wouldn't buy again from engine factory (issue at 3000 miles with a cracked block, that wasn't covered under warranty because it was more than 6 months.


I'd like to find someone who knows "specializes" in fords

Max is an engine builder. GM is his specialty but he has done quite a lot of Ford's as well. And he will treat you right and do a very good job.
