young performance marine
 

has any one used this guy for engine work.i live in evansville in. so i dont have to many high performance boat mechanics that are close,any comments on your experance with eddie would be great.

Hey Crazy,
Don't know about Young Marine but I have had great service with Lynn's Westside Marine in Evansville In.

A customer of mine has a pair of Eddie's 650 fuel injected motors in his Nortech. They run strong, sound great and dont give us a bit of trouble. Once we had problems with the MSD distributers, (because they corroded all to hell) I called Eddie for the set up because they are his engines, he spent way more then enough time with me on the phone to make sure everything was perfect! Told me if I needed anything else to give him a call right away. How many engine builders do that now adays?

John:D

He seems like a nice stand up guy. Some of my friends are running his engines with great success. Kind of sounds like a Yankee but don't hold that against him(just kidding Ed).
If he's busy Eric at EB Marine is dependable also. These would be THE ONLY people in Nashville I would use.

Eddie knows his stuff and he is very reliable and honest. He re-worked all of the rigging in my boat this spring as well as adapting a Hardin Marine serpentine kit to my application which included making and correcting some of their brackets and spacers. It works flawlessly.

He also built the quad-rotor motors for the "Cyclone" Nor-Tech (that had a video bouncing around here a few years back), the quad-rotors that were in the Nashville Katz, he has built a lot of naturally asperated motors as well. There is a set of 750hp's he built last fall pushing a big 38 around here into the mid-90's. He knows his stuff and will not push/sell you anything that you do not need.

He has a web site at www.youngperformancemarine.com

You are right Kennyo, Eric at EB Marine is also a stand up guy who does really good work.

I have heard Young does excellent work!

He built these for me from the ground up. 598CI 750hp NA's. I have beat on them all summer so far and all I have done is change the oil....that is some kind of record for me!! He also built a set of 950 SC's that have 165 hours on them with nothing but oil changes that another friend of mine has in a 388 Hustler.

Boatcrazy, you are more than welcome to come and look at my motors and rigging that Eddie did. I am right down the road from him.

I wondered when you were going to chime in you big ol' knuckle dragging, chevy driving, outdrive trashing sumicth!

We burned a bunch a gas at the hill this weekend.....like Smith said....we ran into Bin Laden......but never saw you....

Man, I've heard that guy is the SHIZNIT!!!!!

Seriously, thanks everyone for the kind words. I do my best. This isn't really that hard , just do what you say you'll do and don't say you'll do it if you can't. Above all, be upfront and honest.
Kenny, me and you need to have a talk about this yankee stuff.:D
John, go change your oil!!!!

We stayed down behind Pates Ford all weekend. I came home with gas for the first time.

Eddie, I said "SOUNDS" like a yankee. I wasn't implying you were or acted like one.

I am oil hearding as we speak!! Ridin around town wit da top down looking for 20/50 Castrol!

I went by Pates Ford on the side of the boat! We went from damn to damn in 45mins. My chit was on the rug and Eric's was turning about 3500 rpm running 90. That is the best way I know to test your boat is to run around all day long with him. I thought about going up in pates.....but I figured you and bin laden were back there for a reason....:eek:

Were you back there trapping clams?

I was chasing clams, I can't say that I trapped any.

Eddie built me 2 naturally asperated 600CI 750hp motors in 04 for my 4300 V Nortech. They were flawless, never had a problem with them. I will be having Eddie rebuild another set as well as some rigging for my inboard fishing vessel over this winter. The guy is honest, fair, which is very hard to come by in this industry. Jeff
