are you ready to cash out for good carbs, exhaust and other parts you´ll need to comply with a stroker? I had a very good luck with Brothers Machine company for my 2276 engine build.

They are very good in shipping overseas, they are very quick in shipping and communication and mine and others feedback to their machining is also very good.

2 of the adverts are people I deal with and use there services,the other I dont know,my only concern with these "bargain engine kits" is there are often small problems with quality control and you may find you spend more money fixings problems than if you bought better quality parts,you may get lucky,lots of people make these products work,but not everyone who buys them.i still think its better to wait and save some more money if thats what it takes to buy parts that will work.
cheers richie,uk

Cars are supposed to be driven, not just talked about!!! Good parts might be expensive but good advice is priceless  |

I know that you are not a fan of Brother´s work maybe you just got a bad luck but everything I ordered was exactly by order, clean and in specs. I re-measured everything as I´m very careful about my build. |
