Hi,

I'm French living in France and I had a 63' 427ci that had been rebuilt by one of the manufacturer listed in this post. The engine had been very badly rebuilt, I've just drove it 4000 miles and it required a total new rebuilt !!!
I'm not alone in this case, 2x others French friends have the same problem as me with this same builder !!!
For us (French) who live 4500/5000 miles far from the US finding a good FE builder is not an easy task as you can imagine.

In mid-2011 I needed some parts for my clutch and my Toploader. I saw Brent's advertisment (B2-Motorsports LLC) on ClubCobra and decided to send an Email to Brent. Few minutes later I get an very precise answer about parts needed. Each time I sent an Email Brent replied quickly with very good suggestions. And of course Brent always replied even if I didn't purchased any parts to him. That's what I like with him his first goal is to help you.

In End 2011 when I needed a new FE engine I asked some estimates about an all aluminium 482Ci to manufacturers listed in this post (except the one that rebuild my previous 427 of course !!!).
I don't know why but I just get one answer and you know from who ? From Brent ! Meaning that the others probably thaught that French customers are not reliable or ??? I don't know.
Well I've exchanged many emails with Brent and I've decided to give him the build of my new engine.
Each time I had a question Brent replied even Saturday and Sunday !!!

I think it's one of the most important thing for me who lives very far from the US to know that I have a honest and very competent person in front of me.

Moreover I've rebuilt my old 427 2x weeks ago and each time I have a problem I sent Emails to Brent who replied with solutions or advices.

I'm so satisfied that I sent new customers to Brent (French friends of mine).
