They are good strong engines but like anything else in that hp range they need to be freshened every 100 hours,,solid lifter cams which will need adjustments or at least checked every 12-25 hours..their thirsty for fuel,,going easy on them they will burn 30+ gallons per hour EACH!

the B&M supercharger parts are nla,,the blower shop has some parts but not all of them and they can still rebuild them if you dont scatter one..will also need to change the oil in them every 25 hrs because fuel will mix with the oil and thin it out..
