I'll add a thumbs up for Joe Lapine in Danbury. Joe takes his time and certainly knows his way around anything Ford. Joe did my FE427 and several of my friends engines. When the best get together they call him chief.

+++1 on Joe Lapine of Danbury Competition Engines.
My ERA FE engine was built by Joe in 1992 and still runs very strong and is quite dependable.
