We have always built engines to suite each customers needs and wants, not just cookie cutter engines. I want to do a little market research here and see what you guys would like to see on the market.
Like a lot of products you get what you pay for. We will not sacrifice our product and name to compete with lesser expensive engines that have low quality parts. We try to choose the parts that will do the job in the engine that they are being selected for. You can go over board and spend money that you do not have to in some cases.
In this business everybody wants a great engine with a warranty that cost as little as possible. Having a problem with your engine is no fun and going through the process of getting it fixed can be a pain in the ass with these insurance companies. We have pretty much just handled any problems we have had with individual customer as they all may vary a little.
With that said be careful of these 2 and 3 year warranties because most are issued by an insurance company by the builder and cost them about 100.00 to 200.00. They have a limited pay out with most having a 3000.00 max pay out.
Back to the engine packages needed. I know that there are some less expensive engines out there with cast pistons, flat tappet camshaft, stock
oil pan, out of the box heads and such. Ford Racing has some of these kinds of packages and we want to know if we need to look into a few budget minded engines. Just checking the waters.
Remember you can buy a name but is the name involved in anything to do with your engine. When you deal with us I have probably worked on some part of your engine. I do all of the cylinder head development in the shop and run all of the CNC heads.
Remember you get what you pay for and you pay for what you get. I have seen so many people in the USA and out of the country get burned by several of these bargain shops that have popped up in the last few years.
Thanks for your input on this matter and we will see what we can do.
Thanks, Keith Craft
