Yeah thats the guys.

Subysat said in their journal that he thought the Crawford motor failed.

It may be a conspiracy though who knows?

One word...... Cosworth..... I've spoken with 6 different Cosworth owners including Richard Garcia of DynoComp.... You can beat Cosworth motors to death and not burn a drop of oil..... You might pay a pretty penny, but you wont be like this poor guy.... Hope all works out for you.... My next motor will be a Cosworth Stage 1..... You might wanna do the same....

Quick question, and no slam intended: Does this mean you'll slide him a new shortblock, or just replace the defective rod? This should be clarified.

Interesting, I have seen Automaster browsing this thread but it wasn't denied. I would think if it wasn't true it would of been denied immediatley.

We are Crawford's East Coast Distributor, Installation and Tuning Facility. So anything with Crawford's name on it catches our attention. Thank you for noticing we were here.

Thanks for replying, but the point of my post was you failing to deny the Crawford engine let go on your shop car. Sarcastic replies gets you no where. Ask other vendors who tried that statergy.
