i still think that it's cause they didn't break it in properly... but they do have very strict directions for breaking it in

Coast High Performance will build you the same thing for around the same price, I think. I don't know of anyone having problems w/ them.




....but then you'd have to change your name to 92mustangchp331!!!! If you built it yourself you'd really be screwed...92mustangbuiltitmyself331......Is it 5 yet????

I was about to recommend CHP as well. They have some great products, decent prices, and are extremely versed in the motors... I've heard of people just cramming ungodly amounts of power through some of these small blocks, and having them hold up well... Actually, I was looking at the same motor... even same set of heads... may be doing a 347 though... not sure between 331 and 347 yet
