i dont know.. it looks good.. GREAT feedback from ebayers.. lol dont know... from the looks of it this is possibly their JOB... to strictly build engines or shortblocks and sell them locally and on ebay... maybe they sell so many they get the parts at great prices and pass along the deals.

 

That's very possible, though I don't know where they'd get a steady supply of high tin/nickel blocks from. Prolly just getting blocks from the junkyard, going over em real thoroughly and stickin an Eagle stroker kit in em. They sell the stroker kit for 699, and are probably making profit off of that, so you figure 700 for the kit, 100 for the block, and that means they're making 600 bucks for machining and assembly, which isn't bad. If the feedback is good on em, go for it, just be sure to get a warranty.

 

on Racepages.com, they got 2 stars out of 5 with three opinions(=poor/fair)

do a goooogle search "dynoflo", didn't like what I read, 2 months to ship, wrong valve size, wrong lifters, no tech help......

Buy cheap.....get cheap

 

Besides getting the block cheap the rotating assem. they are talking about is pretty cheap

it says it has a cast crank
Probe pistons (which from what I heard are the "cheaper" brand
and 5140 forged rods.

If your going forged most to 4340 forged being the stoggest general type of forging.

To me it sounds like a perfect street daily engine but nothing to go romp with.

If those blocks are in great shape I would buy it and sell the rest back on Ebay lol.

The parts are cheap parts and they are making the money on machine work. Probably as good as any other rebuilt engine you could get and might have a little better parts. I got 230cc Dart Pro1 heads for $925 on ebay and everyone warned me they could be junk. I checked everything out myself and had my machinist look them over. Seems I just got a really good deal.

Siggy they DO NOT have Camshafts or Lifters so that is about $200 right there

 

You can get the Eagle bottom end they use for $700. Then, you just need the block, and the bare minumum machining. It adds up.

They did lie about the "all forged" part. The Eagle cast steel crank is obviously cast.

 

Plus look at shipping cost. if you get a bad engine you will probably have to pay return shipping which, in a way, adds a couple hundred dollar deductable to the cost. As a side note i have a .040 350 machined for a 400 crank 4bolt 010 020 block with a cracked cylinder if anybody wants it before i toss it speak up.

 

Hey NXS, it's only about $45.00- $50.00 for a good sleeve job on one cylinder. Where you at in OK.?

 

About 15 miles outside of Siloam Springs, Ark on hwy 412. It's all yours if you want it.

 

NXS, got any pics of how bad the crack is? Because I might be interested if its worth it.

 

It sounds like about an 90 mile drive, I've gone farther for less!! Heck, NXS, let me know when a good time for you would be and I'll take it off your hands!

 

Here is the crack i think>

 

And this is the machine work> I almost hate to tell you it has set outside for a month so it has more rust than appears here, but if you want it I can meet you in Siloam pretty much any time during the week.

 

It looks like it needs a sleeve! Did the bottom end come apart? This didn't just appear after the machine work was done, right?

 

It was my freinds 383 and he got in a wreck. When he put the motor in his '72 he drove to the muffler shop and said on the way home it got hot. He checked it out, pulled the head and saw water on top of a piston. That piston had a cracked ringland. I sold the heads,crank, rods/pistons...all of it but kept the block. If you want it you can have it. I was going to sell it as scrap but...if anybody can or wants to do something with it feel free.

Heck, call it spoken for, I could come and get it today and be home for the SuperBowl. Ya' busy around say 2:45 p.m.?????????

 

It's yours. Do you know where you want to meet at?

 

I'll send you a P.M. with my phone #, if you will send me your # I'll call you to set everything up. If you could meet me in Siloam Springs, I would just call you 20 min. before I got to town to give you time to meet me and tell me where to go!

 

Make him give you a ride in his car for nxs. HG

 

Sorry Hemmie! The Rumbler is sleeping quietly for the winter! From the sound of things though, the Gremmie is getting a blown SBC?? SSweeeeet!!!

 

Ah Ha! That's what HG meant! I would have loved a good ride in the rain yesterday so i took one. V6, welded rearend & 265/50/15s. Did we spin for 600 feet? You be the judge.
