I'd like to hear more on these guys too. Just read through their site & their perf. eng. # TOY22RE HP-1 sounds exactly like what I'm after...(was thinking orient short blk & engnbldr street rv head) & this comes with a WARRANTY, even if it is only 30m or 30K miles....

Anyone dealt with them? Anyone near Spokane, WA area??

just what i needed, another option!! But still nice find "netgodsrdn2" !!

Well, just wanted to post an update since I ended up with an engine from Orient.
It's been a few months & about 800 miles so far, everythings going good! This thing runs smooth, adjusted the valves per their direction @ 500 mi, all but a couple were tight....all in all I'm happy so far!

No if I can just get more miles on it! Gotta quick working on / upgrading other things!!!!

i just ordered mine about 2 hous ago from oreintengine. Their prices are a little higher because they have all the shipping prices included in theirs. Also the 3 year unlimited mile warranty is one of the best out there. Ive heard nothing but good things about them. After I get mine and have it installed I will start a thread on the quality and progress/ how the whole transaction went, if some would like to know...

You gotta watch those knocks.If you spin a rod bearing it,s OK;but if you spin a main bearing they wont give you a core credit on your old engine.$200-$500
