I live in South Florida as well and have never heard of A&L Engines.

I also concur with REDS32, there are alot of cr@#py shops down here. I have been burned in the past and am very leary of anything up for sale as a result.

Hey sprink,
How did your brother make out with these clowns.

Got nothing but a POS .060 SBC with no help or offer from the owner at all. He didn't even get 50 hours out of it. The heads didn't even match...had different casting numbers and combustion chamber sizes!! Stay away from the guy...nothing but trouble.

The laws suck . These kind of guys are all over and nobody does anything.

Hey guys. I was ready to get my cc out and do business with Rick. Thank God I read this post!!! The price he quoted was awesome... now I know why! Unbelievable!

Thank you!!!!!! The power of the internet is awesome. Let this thread continue to be a warning for all.

Kelly :-)

Did you google A&L?

On web site....never a core charge.


Where do they get this junk that they sell?
When I opened up my 330HP bbc, that they sold the previous owner of my 242SS, the parts were all cast with a 10/20 crank and .040 pistons.
Seems the PO bought it because it was such a great price.....get what you pay for.
I ripped that junk out and threw it away. I would not run that kind of stuff in my boat.

Make sure you contact them with the reason for not purchasing there engine!!

Maybe enough people will say screw you and your junk and put them outta business!!

go see Tommy at Chief!!! he's the best in Fla hands down!!
