However, Kyle doesn't offer a lot of things that is being done to my engine like the Crower crankshaft, along with a lot of other things. This motor build has been a trial for several new things and stuff, and I enjoy the process. I trust Don a lot, and he is a local friend of mine that knows his shit about these cars and about building motors. His motor that he built by himself has I believe 50,000 high hp miles on it..a lot more than most other built high hp last out there! There is no other "shop" building the engine. However when machine work needs to be done to it, obviously we can't just do that in Don's garage now can we? No, and that is where the shops that I was talking about come into play. Unfortunately, one guy at the machine shop messed up, but Don caught the issue b/c as I posted before, he knows his shit. The other issue that I was talking about was when the company in California jacked up my modified stock crankshaft...that ended up being a blessing in disguise though, as it allowed me to rethink my plan and go with a much better Crower crankshaft. IPP does great work, I agree, but the ability to build a motor locally with a friend, while taking your time to think up and try new ideas beats just mailing a motor 300 miles away to get a basic build. I believe Kyle would agree as well.
Thanks, Mike 1991 Black 3.0 Twin Turbo Please...if you are feeling like buying something from AMS, please do not do so. The parts that Vuk at AMS sells are ALL just cheap chinese copied crap parts that were originally developed by people and friends within this close nit community. Yes, the parts AMS sells are cheaper, but with that comes lower quality. By buying parts from AMS, you will be hurting this community, by causing the real innovators out there to no longer want to develop parts for ours cars (SPL, BDE, SZ, etc). This is not an assumption, but is a fact, as it has already happened with several vendors. AMS does no R&D on anything...just simply "copy and pastes" parts. AMS is literally a virus and a scurge in the community, and every part not bought through them, but bought through someone else who actually develops parts instead is a great thing!
