Going to build a fully built 7 or 10 mil cub motor soon. Just wanted to get some input or suggestions on who I should let build it for me in So Cal. Appreciate the advice. Thanks.

^^just make sure he uses a hotrods crank. He's been using his "custom built" cranks that some have had problems with. There's was a dude on here recently who found out the hard way and I think he ended up sending his engine to redline. I'm in San Diego and Herr jugs is about 25 min from my home. I would use him, just make sure you specifiy what parts you want.

He didn't have problems with the crank he just wanted a Hot Rod crank.

No I found out the hard way, its not what I was expecting to get when I bought his kit. Yes I did get a hot rods crank from redline, thats because if you spend the money on a nice topend you don't want a crank ruining it when the rods break or bend cause of the extra hp. Nothing happened to the crank, your right about that. Kevin did a good job with my motor. I think the best thing you can do is do your research and know what parts are being put in the motor ahead of time. Since you do live that close it may benefit you to have him build it. But I would also call redline to see what he says. That's just my 2 cents

What's why I went with a billet crank. Not guaranteed not to fail, but less likely.

If forged is done right it will be plenty strong and long lasting. Ive seen billets let go just as often.
