As im sure you know, Mark comes VERY highly recommended by a ton of people on the team chevelle forum. But FWIW, I was less than impressed with the customer service aspect of his business. But, I put up with it because I had my heart set on one of his engines. Hopefully I have a positive experience. Time will tell.
When you say grenaded, what went wrong? And, do you know what caused the problem with you roller cam?
Sorry I didnt reply sooner the first one number 8 piston self destructed . No evidence of it hitting a valve and or detonation . Damaged the block beyond repair. Like I said he did replace it under warranty but waited almost a year for the replacement .

It wasnt the cam that went south it was the rocker poly locks they cracked and were backing off had three that were cracked. Cheap Chinese parts but Mark is sending me a complete new set of USA made Scorpion rockers but hes moving his shop to Texas so everything is on hold .


Your Chevelle is coming out great
