I'm running one of Dean Woodruff's 418's from HOC. It's an amazing powerplant. A fantastic blend of streetability and screaming power built with all premium components.
I had a rod bolt fail at Willow & toasted the piston. ARP refused to accept responsibility, so Dean rebuilt the motor on his dime. As Lynn Park said when I told him the story, "Don't lose that guy's phone number."
I can't say that he would be as accomodating with all of his customers (although nearly everyone I know running his 418 has expressed satisfaction with his service,) but I haven't had any problems since, and needless to say, I can't say enough about Dean as well as his motor.
