  • engine builder in Dallas

    I have been planning a new engine for the Torino and I want piece of mind knowing its done right the first time.

    Anyone know any shops in the DFW area that are experienced with big block Fords? This isn't a generic iron head rebuild, its an Aluminum headed stroker that should make close to 800hp on pump gas.

    I live literally walking distance to Well's Racing here in D'ville but last time I talked to them about building a BBF they looked at me like I just raped their cat.

              Yes they do street stuff. I am not sure on their pricing, but from the sounds of it you want the best. IMO In the big block market they are the best.

                    What are you building exactly? I would like to hear about it. I'd be interested to hear who can build a good one here locally. I'm considering putting together a BBF with some old junkyard parts I found

                            Cool, I always thought they did hard core racing stuff.

                            Too much money in this one to risk my shade tree skills on it.

                              P-51 heads I assume?

                              I wouldn't let geography stop me from using John Kaase's shop as long as I was prepared to pay his prices, which aren't cheap. I'd definitely be using one of his oil pumps on any BBF I built. Those guys do everything right.
