Quality for quality, the costs seem to be the same, in my opinion. If you have a builder you trust, be sure to use him rather than take a chance on an unknown.
Alot of the guys that advertise on the internet have already burned through their local people, and try to escape their bad reputation by reaching outward across the states.


Funny you say that. I just talked to an eBay seller that advertised engines and he happened to be within 20 miles of home. So I asked if he did any individual custom work for a specific engine build I had in mind. As soon as he identified me as half knowledgeable and that I wanted it for a performance application he shut down and said he would not sell me one of his engines. He said that he would rather not make me "not happy" and him "not happy"
So, I asked if his engines could not handle 5500 RPM and he just said that his engine was not designed for performance applications. End of Story. He told me to go to Golan.
