Dam Randy sorry to hear that. Looks like someone ran the pipe plugs in way to far...

well..... at least we all know that it wasn't just our bad luck.... we truly were all ripped off and lied to.... what goes around comes around I guess.... and he has the
nerve to advertise on OSO I hope anyone looking for a Bullet engine can find these threads or at least post asking about them!!

Engine Research Inc in Cobden. Builds a lot of DIRT motors sprint and mod. Has done 383's and 427's I've run in a Chris Craft and now the Regal. Currently building me 556's as well. Has done some 454's as well for Marine. All in all he's built 100 motors for my father before he passed, majority of them in the Marine application.

There is a builder in Toronto as well that just isn't coming to my mind.

I'll say it again anytime you see a marine engine builder and or a marine tech using silicone on engine parts or even on the outdrives , its a builder and tech you want to stay away from completely. In the industry they are called shadetrees.

Pfaff used silicone on my intake. They must have to pull them back apart a lot. I have had good luck with great stuff. And Randy FYI . I am just using my motor for a bench right now . lol ;)
