Default Motor Builder Help

I know I am entering sacred SBRT ground by requesting your assistance, but I was wondering any input some of you guys might have on a pair of motors built by Pat Musi there in the Jersey area. These are fresh motors dyno'd at 900 hp that are in a boat I am trying to buy. What do you think of his work and has anyone had work done by him before? I appreciate your input. By the way, I met a bunch of the SBRT group at the 2006 shootout at LOTO. We arranged for the lost child "ratman" to be delivered to you guys down there. Hope to have this new boat done by this year's event and the OSS championships there as well.


A little motor info, Merlin III tall deck blocks, Blower Shop polished 871 blower, JE Custom Pistons, Edelbrock Alum heads, Luniti Crank, Oliver Bullet Steel Rods, Crane cams and cam shafts, Isky lifters, holley 850 carbs, detuned with larger pulley to 2-4 lbs of boost (smaller pulley dyno'd at 894hp) Hoping to get some ideas for longevity, idle manners, I'd assume 92+ octane fuel, etc. The motors are said to be fresh (O Hours) in a 37 Stiletto Outerlimits.

Pat does a decent job. I know of a 35 Cig that had his motors and had some issues but it's debatable whether or not he was the cause.

thanks for the input guys, shogren has pulled the motors out of the equation now, I think it always concerns people when you get up to that horsepower and you are paying 50k + for motors that you know nothing about, just my .02 and almost my 50K i guess. Did anyone know the 37 stiletto at shogren's that i was referencing, it supposedly came from the jersey area.
