First off a Huge thanks to “Steve Ashworth Performance” in Fuquay Varina, NC. They did an amazing job on my engine. All the way I wanted to cut corners and get it going and they insisted on doing it right. They went way above and beyond with machine work, parts selection & attention to detail. The motor I ended up with is something I would have only dreamed of before. On top of that they came to my house and installed it!!!! We unloaded it at 6:45pm and at 8:30 we were firing it up!!! My last motor may have been an Ashworth shortblock but it wasn’t an Ashworth Engine, this is an Ashworth engine and it sounds awesome! I am so happy!
