I checked back on my Coast paperwork and the salesman is listed as Mike. But I also remember talking to George. I wanted a good set up to work with my supercharger, stroke, compression, cam reccommendation etc. I had already done a lot of research, called a lot of manufacturers and had a pretty good idea as to what I 'thought' I wanted from all the feedback. I think it was George at Coast, pretty much independantly backed up what I had already figured out from calling cam companies etc. I feel I got want I wanted, it was good quality, and I have been very happy with the results. Once I decided what I wanted I had no trouble getting a price worked out while I was on the phone. They do ask a lot of specific questions which if you don't have answers to they may not be able to give you a firm quote.

I did not have Coast assemble my motor. I used a local machine shop for the block and head work (Martyn Motors, Morrisville PA) and am exremely pleased with the service and the work they did. They are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for. As for The Engine Factory, I don't have any experience with them and don't personally know anyone who has.
