Ive never heard anything bad, i called on an engine for my 20 a few years back and were very cool on the phone. Being as you are in pa/md talk to dave at mdg here in edgewater. Many of us here on the bay have his power and love it. He has my 20 engine right now doing a whippple on it. Local and dyno on premise. Pm me if you have any questions....

Ron rebuilt my engine a year ago. Excellent work at resonable pricing. Very knowledgable
He has a great machine shop and machining skills.
I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Absolutely top notch all the way around. His shop is in Bessmer, AL which is just south of Birmingham. I had mine completely redone over the winter and have personal knowledge of dozens more and not one bad thing to say about Ron and that is very rare in the marine business.

I have had many friends deal with Ron with nothing but good things to say.....I have also seen him jump in the bilge of boats at poker runs to get people back going....I've even seen him drive a some really drunk people around at a poker run party.....stand up guy for sure

Ive talked to him once or twice asking input on a combo and getting some prices. seems like a really knowledgeable and nice person to deal with. He is in my top two picks if I ever have someone do an engine for me instead of doing my own.

His shop use to be right down the street from me before hurricane Katrina. He still uses the louisiana phone number but his shop is in al. I wish he was still local. Help me out with a jet boat motor right before the storm. He knows his business. Very good mechanic.
