Precision Engine Rebuilder

Well, typical bad engine builder. They use a different name when engine arrives, paper work lists Thunderbolt etc. No details on parts, just 383 stroker / with no warranty written on paper work. Engine never ran right after starting. Cylinder 4 did not seal properly. Block was not decked after hone job. Coolant leaks into piston and fouls plug. Found used lifters in the motor. Head bolts were over tightened; one of them had to be cut for removal. Heads were supposed to be machined with bigger valves, but originals were re-installed. Avoid there service. I threw away $4,200 dollars.

I purchased an engine from PrecisionEngine.com, I beilieve they are also known as Thunderbolt Engines, RebuiltCrateEngines.com, and ICT Engines of Houston, Texas. The engine I received was missing key items that were outlined on the spec sheet and sales sheet. Because of this, the engine failed at less than 400 miles. They did replace parts, but took no responsiblity for the discrepencies on the sales sheet until I hired an attorney. Even after settling with them, I discovered that they had used stock parts on a high performance engine. The engine almost failed a second time less than 2000 miles later. Their customer service is poor, and they either cut corners or have no quality control. Either way, I wouldn't recommend you purchase any engine from this company.
