Bloomquist Engines

I would think Custom made him a Sweet deal? He has the connections and input to make any engine builder relevant in late models Custom had gotten behind and getting Scott would be a very good move to catch up

Man what a crappy comment to make without any proof. This why business people hate the internet.

That has been the rumor going around since about July.

run whatever you want but just get your tail to the track on time..

I can’t believe how some of you are speaking nonsense about Andy. He’s an amazing guy who takes great pride in his product. There was a period this year where a supplier he used issued a recall on components because of widespread failure.

He does the machine work at his own shop and has very little done at RY.

Used components in his engines? Really? That’s so asinine, there isn’t a word for it.

Andy lasted much longer than usual suppliers with Scott. I wouldn’t read into this too much, it’s just the cycle of life with Zero.

How has Scott's seasons faired after swapping engine builders ?

[Krooser]

Ive seen leased engines with some used stuff but never in a new, complete engine.

My engines? Most everything is used... some pieces are used up!

How has Scott's seasons faired after swapping engine builders ?

Scott has generally always been fast, regardless of what’s under the hood. Just some years with more reliability issues than others.

Knew a driver in the RHS engines day got a new motor that was supposed to be dyno'd motor showed a little black smoot in the exhaust port but when putting on the carb a bolt was dropped in the intake and they had to pull the intake and it was obvious the motor had never been started they figued out that RHS had used a torch to blacken the ports

LOL ... you must still be living in the 80s.

[MI Dirt Fan]

In a surprising twist. I'm gonna have to agree with Terry on this. lol

They may hate the internet but 95% of thier business relys on it somehow.

Customs last run with a big name driver on the lucas tour led little to no success. I dont think custom is looked at the same as they were 15 years ago quality wise.

As far as Andy using old parts, pro power mustve been doing the same thing. It was rumored they got rash of bad parts. It's pretty obvious that was the case, because everybody was breaking the same things.

[MI Dirt Fan]

I'm assuming he will be running Customs in Arizona? If he is at least it'll give him some track time before touring starts.

[Jking24]

Their are a few guys in this area that run custom engines and non of them have any reliability issues but a few of the drivers that have changed have told me thay the engines make big numbers but don't drive well. And i would have to agree with those guys becuase everybody i know with them goes like hell when it's heavy and struggles in the slick

[Highwayman]

Maybe its a situation that will be mutually beneficial, Bloomer gets a reliable builder closer to home. Custom gets feedback from HOF driver to improve their engine packages... Maybe they help each other.

If most are expecting him to run Lucas I wonder why he doesn't have atleast the entire Lucas schedule posted on his website 🤔
