    Gents;

    I see Curtis Farley has folded his shop. Although all my engines in the past were Ivey, I need my Farley Pinto (purchased from a friend after selling my Ivey National engine), cleaned, assembled and fired by someone who knows what they are doing.

    I was was thinking of sending it to Jay, but the cost of freight to simply assemble a low time engine is not an option. Any suggestions? I have the list of all national builders, but hoping there is someone good, trustworthy and a reasonable distance from Destin. Suggestions?

    V/r

    I've tried to blow up Rollin's work many times, to no avail. Last was a 7,900 over-rev coming out of the last turn at Road Atlanta. Grabbed for 4th, got 2nd, foot to the floor. Still held together. Prices are reasonable, and work is first rate.

    I think the world of the Jay Ivey family. He has saved my weekend at Portland and sold me parts at attractive prices so I could build my motors myself. My 60+ hour homebuilt Kent is coming out of the Crossle this weekend and will go to Jay for a refresh. I race against Jay's motors in the Crossflow Cup. Jay's work is first rate. His motors make great power and they are reliable for a fair price.

    I have a spare head that was ported and built by Rollin for the Clements and possibly for RB Haines from my Z-10. It has given me great service.

    I think you will be well served with either builder.

    Regards,
    Dan

    Butler built my 1.6 & all my 2 liter engines. Never had a failure and the power has always been there.
