Only if you pay their prices. Then they smile until you are out the door and then they break into demonic laughter. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

I'm leaning toward Atkins right now. I can't remember ever hearing anything bad about them.



Anyone have experience with Revolution Rotary?

My atkins blew a main bearing and it was less than a year old. I've heard from a few people about these engines having main bearing failure. No more atkins for me. I got a J-spec and it has been the best engine ever, (knock on wood) Puts out 330 to the wheels daily.



If i were to get a new engine again with out upgrades, it would be a mazda reman.

Ive had good luck with my J-spec too. It handled 19psi on the stock turbo more than a couple times.



The turbo actually ended up blowing up before my engine did. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

I will rebuild my own using a jspec as a core. Otherwise I would send it to ITO or BDC. I had problems with RR.

I buy my motors from Mandeville Auto Tech. Darryl Drummond builds the motors. Stock to PPort. He knows his stuff.
