Smile engine factory

hi
anyone bought an engine from engine factory? If so good or bad experience? Also are their engines as complete as they say, or do you have to buy a bunch of extra stuff to get' em in and running?

Engine Factory is a top notch company. They run the engines prior to shipping and give you a one year warrantee that they WILL make good on. They are truely a turnkey engine. Talk to Chris over there.

I bought an engine from them and had main bearing spin. It had taken me a year and a half to put my car together and I only had 80 miles on motor. They sent me a new short block and and gave me 500 dollrs back to help with incidentals putting top end back together. So far so good. They were good to work with.

Great to work with, I got the complete drive, the engine from carb to oil pan, bell housing, clutch, tranny ect... all went together perfectly. The engine comes with e video showing them running it as well as showing what you will need to hook up when you instal it, the actual engine was also marked showing all hook up points such as fuel line, water lines ect... marked on the engine. Chris was great to work with.
