My job offers ATK engines and they offer a 3 year, unlimited mileage warranty on the engines. Have not had one comeback yet. When I need one I may pick one up myself.

These aren't the ones you get at Kragen/Orillies are they?

My buddy had a motor from them and I think it was a ATK, blew a hole in the side of the block 3 months after warranty was up.

I know on Pirate they have a less than favorable review.
Lots of complaints with garbage warranty and hassles of settling claims.

Believe they are "rebuilt" south of the boarder. Of course that's better than south of their boarder.

My 0.02 is to rebuild yourself or have a local established machine shop do the work.

When I lived in the Bay Area I came across a few of these and it seemed that after a few miles >20K they would start leaking out gaskets like timing cover, oil pan etc. If I was going to buy a rebuilt motor I'd go with http://www.22reperformance.com/22RE%...20Engines.html

or finding a reputable local machine shop is probably the best way to go.

As far as warranty's go do you remember in Tommy boy when they were talking about putting a piece of crap in a box and stamping a warranty on it to make people feel warm and fuzzy?

When I was researching companies for my motor, ATK had lots of bad reviews all over the internet. They use chinese parts for their rebuilds. Be careful...
