I don't think anyone has mentioned Doug Lepak yet.  No personal 
experience with his work, but he posts on Moparts and has a good rep. 

His web page is http://drive.to/stwheels  If you're at work, the page 
"meep-meep"s when it opens, turn volme down if needed. :-)

 I spend a lot of time on the Moparts.com board. There has been a lot of 
discussion about crate Hemis. As stated by someone on this board, the engines 
are 
not assembled by Chrysler and there have been a lot of problems with the 
contractors. The jury is still out on whether the quality control issues have 
been 
resolved. Disassembly and re-assembly is recommended. A harsh judgment on the 
Mopar flagship.

sad indeed, from personal experience, i would not
install any engine without a $200 dollar dyno tune.
if nothing else it will show any oil leaks and
controls cam break-in, in which case, it becomes
cheaper than having to pull the motor afterwards. it
is also nice to  know how timing and jetting will
affect the performance.

mopar can blame the problem on others, but they are
the ones who are selling them for premium prices,
therefore they are responsible for the end product and
quality.

Subject: Re: Crate Hemi engines




Cummins assembles crate motors for Mopar now.  I am not sure how long  they 
have been doing the motors.  They are supposed to be doing pretty  good, heck 
look at the Diesels.  I have heard of some of the horror  stories.  Talked to a 
guy locally that put a crate hemi in a low mileage  '66 Charger and he went 
through 2 motors and had to go into both, at Chrysler's  expense.  I also heard 
that John Aruzza, another local, you  know the famous Hemi builder, was 
fixing the screw ups in the crate  motors.   I would personally buy a motor 
assembled by someone such  as John Aruzza to assemble one for me.  He uses Mopar 

blocks  and then works his magic!

The resistor itself is just a go-no go deal.  However, they can run hot
