Default Looking for a motor builder.

That is fimiliar with wiseco pistons on boosted applications. A little info on the motor setup.

Brand new k24 block
AP2 s2000 crank
custom rods
custom wiseco pistons

This motor will more than likely see 30psi+ but will occasionally be driven as long as the weather is permitted.

I dont know how to get ahold of any motor builders or know their names on here. Just looking for some kind of contact info. Thanks guys.

I dont feel comfortable in building the motor myself. This motor will have a gt4088r on it and im assuming in the 700hp mark. Im kind of looking for someone to assemble the motor. I will have all major components except for the main bearings.

Jojo is a very good engine builder. He has been building my motors for years as well as his own and many others. We are making well over 700hp with no issues. His shop name is Cure Auto, it's in Covina CA. http://www.cureautomotive.com

Justice racing engines in Fredrick Maryland. In my mind he is by far the best honda engine builder in the country. Well worth shipping the engine to him to have it built.


Thats my .02


his screen name is doublej

I live in kentucky but I am not opposed to sending it out to get built because more than likely that will have to be done. Ive heard of justice race engines before. I have some checking to do thanks guys.

any of the 3 mentioned places are reputable shops..

My advice would be to call each shop, get some information, and see who you feel comfortable with..

Justice

Laskey

Miller
