Default what sponsor wants to build a pretty specific motor?

i'm looking to have something built, all motor short block (minus cam)basically i wanna know who's the absolute baddest for building this all motor...motor. we want to go after the all motor record and feel we have the car (suspension and weight wise) to do it with, and we can do heads/cam and the rest of the setup to get it done, but we don't have engine building facilities here at the shop (yet)...so what shop wants to design (think up) the setup and build it?

Futral Motorsports has built some stout all motor cars, W2W has built some of the sweetest stuff around as well.. Those are going to be your best bets. Futral is pretty backed up right now, so if you are actually interested you might want to call them and ask them the lead time.

Peace,
Josh

W2W and FMS would both be good choices, don't forget some of the real good non sponsors or small shops though

Building the motor isn't a problem for the shops listed,your problem will be that this time of the year everyone is probly booked up.Of course you already know 700hp NA is not cheap

Guys, I think he just wants a short block. Give me a shout. We had a 318CI Mopar (out of a 79 Dodge van ) on the engine dyno last week that did 558 hp with 8.5:1 CR. Very light weight rotating and some other tricks

I'd like to discuss your goals.

Hey Mikey, do you do any tuning on the engine dyno? If so could you PM me a price.
