Ed, not knowing what conversations you, Lynn, and BES have had,I would think that BES is plenty capable of building a good engine. Now me saying that, if I was doing what you are doing, I wouldn't rule them out, but they wouldn't have been my first chioce for a turbo motor. For most applications they would be a good choice. My concern in your case is now you are stuck with finding someone to make the EFI work, make the headers, etc. then hope it all works together. While if you could have found someone to build your engine start to finish that provides a turnkey turbo motor I think the end result would have been better. Which leads me to ask, has BES tried to work with you on resolving any thing that you feel is inadequate? What were their (BES) thoughts on the rocker studs and threads? If you want you can pm me and tell me.
