opinon of yearone power crate engine?

[Number98]

I was told on the big blocks that they gave the customers another new crate engine for most cases and in a few had the engine "fixed" and returned to that customer.

YearOne is a reputable company and strives to take care of their customers (for the most part). While my buddy was there he said they had a customer purchase a Richmond 6-speed trans for a Nova and when it crapped out on the Hot Rod Power Tour the Year One guys had one flown in same day to replace it and even found a shop to do the work so the guy could get back on the road and not miss any of the Tour.

To me, that's good stuff there....

That sounds pretty good to me i think I may have to go with this deal. I've always thought of yearone pretty well. Any idea how many your friend meant when he said a "couple" small block ones came back? cause if its like 20 out of hundreds thats still really good.

I can't say for sure because honestly I do not remember but I think he said it was more like 5 or so out of a couple hundred... But it's been a few years since we talked about it.

5 out of a couple hundred thats pretty damn good quality wise. I think im probably goning to go with this option. Seems pretty good
