Take a look at their Mopar Muscle Challenge engine and see how good it was and that tells me enough to stay away from them......

Since you don't know of any local shops I think a crate engine from a shop is gonna be your best bet......Look through the Mopar Mags and see whats out there....places like Speed-o-Motive and MRL Performance have good reps from what I have heard. I have a friend with an MRL 318 in his 66 Barracuda and you'd swaer it was a 360 the way it runs. I have heard the horror stories about the MP crate motors and seen some of the carnage. A guy in my town bought a crate 472 Hemi for his Polara.....well he dropped it in and fired it up and it rattled and shook and made all kinda of noise.....ended up having a rod bolt break and it dropped a valve.....killed the one head and piston, rod and crank.....The local dealer inspected it and MP replaced the parts.....so they at least stood behind it. I really like the 440 SB and I saw one at the classic this weekend.....I wonder who is screwing those together for Ma Mopar?
