Re: Blueprint vs ATK Engines

atk use to sell reman engine to advance auto and local parts stores i've used a couple one in my f150 it ran good but always had oil pressure issuses it run lower pressure then i like or the oil pressure wandered alot, other was a reman 2.8 that in my bosses s10 blazer it runs good i installed like 6 years ago i bought the engine with the timing covers and pans already installed, fast forward to last year it starts leaking coolant out of the timing cover where it meets the block pull the timing cover and find out that the timing set is wore out , and now the vavle seals are leaking and we've only put 20k miles on it in 6 years so i stay away from atk engine now
