[Matt49]

Brad,
Last year at this time you posted a nice "winterization" guide. Would you mind re-posting or posting it on your website?

Thanks,
Matt

I swear I need to put you on the payroll-----LOL

I was thinking about this just this morning and I actually just came inside from winterizing my motorhome and sat down to warm up

I will get to this in the next 12 hours----I promise

thanks JJ

and I still agree with everything on there

some added notes would be

draining of the block is best done by pulling the plugs located at the bottom center of the block----just above the oil pan-----if noone has changed them they will be 9/16 hex

also -----the oil used for fogging should not be synthetic-----use what ever brand you like but keep it conventional oil
you can buy regular fogging oil as well that is acceptable

thanks for takeing care of your engine

hey brad what do u charge to do started up on 604 if bought from u?

[brad hibbard]

Not sure i know what you mean----maybe this will help

Race-1 new engine prep---$100 --includes completion of our compiled "new engine check list"

Race-1 advance new engine prep---$300---same as above with the addition of shimming the installed height of the valve springs to the minimum spec and priming the oil system with Joe Gibbs break-in oil

Dyno/Break-in service is $500

these prices apply whether you buy the engine from us or not------we will guide you through any of these operations at no charge should you choose to do them on your own
