I did not buy an assembled motor from Coast but I did buy a crank, rods, custom pistons and had them balance the whole lot for me. I had a small problem with delivery because of the availibility of the rods but everything checked out spot on tolerance when I measured it to have the block machined.

I can't comment on agro's problems with Coast but may be it has something to do with the number of FE's that Coast does (very few)compared to Windsors (a lot)? One place that seems to have a very solid reputation for Windsor strokers is DSS. I did not use DSS purely because I got much better info and help over the phone from Coast on my particular combination. Hopefully you should get some good feedback on the best place to go from others on this site.
