Thanks everyone for the input and I am sorry some people are not happy with their purchase. But from the great feedback form other customers thats why I bought from Texas Speed, and I hope the motor runs great. All I want is a good reliable motor. Thanks Matt for all your help!

I can assure you that Sunset Racecraft does outstanding second to none work. If I understand this correctly did TSP send out an assembled short block or just some of the rotating assembly?

I would rather have my engine built by the company that has the best record. If a company has a good track record and great customer service, of course they'll have built thousands of engines. Im sure Texas Speed has made mistakes during their history, but Im sure HKE has too as well as any other business. Everybody wants perfect but nobody is perfect.
