only 1 place to go in Ocean County...The "OLD" Kurts Marine (now called Bandit Performance Marine) is now owned and operated by the Wehrlen Family from Wehrlen Brothers Marina...Danny Crank is the only person that will put a wrench to any engine of mine and has a solid reputation for building a solid lasting engine and a more then competitive price.

I'm going to deal with Rudy, stopped over there last Friday, and he seems to be a straight shooter and he's only about 10 miles from my house. He gave me a few options and has some feelers out there, hopefully I will have some motors in a weeks or so.

Any recommendations on a NJ engine builder? I have been looking at CMS Motorsports in Brick any feedback with them? His engine builder Tom Moulis used to be with Kurts. From what I understand is right across the street. Any information would be greatly appreciated..Thanks
Rudy has built 5 engines for us in the last 6 years including a pair of true 1300+hp 565s that now have over 270 hrs on them and still leak down at 10%.They don't burn a lick of oil or blow anything out of the breathers.
If your looking for a specific time frame or a speedy one or two week turn around Rudy is probably not your guy.Although I have seen him complete a pair of engines and rig them in a week for a Poker run .He does all of the engine building portion 100% himself and between drag cars,muscle cars and boats, he has plenty of work .
If you are looking for true custom , carefully assembled well engineered power that lasts, he is your man.

I have also had a friend with a 540 by him that is still running 5 yrs later and I can say at least 5 other boats that I have seen him service.

He's either gonna tweak a couple of 502 crate motors a little or hes got some feelers out there for me for some already built engines, and he'll just go over them for me. Either way I trust he'll steer me in the right direction for my budget and time.
