Post NoCo Engine Builders
As with most projects my '68 had it's own plan in mind. Instead of lockers, axles and new gears over the winter I get to replace the engine. Not sure what happened other than the bearings ended up in the oil. Have pretty much decided to replace the 302 with a 351W and looking for recommendations on engines builders in Northern Colorado that understand builds for trail rigs/daily driver 4x4s. Would like to have it built rather than buy a complete unit and then have to swap out parts to get the torque/HP where it's needed.

Thanks!

Call Scott at MPG Heads 303-762-8196

He is in Englewood so not exactly in NoCO but in my opinion well worth it (you are talking about spending $2k or more here)

Have you thought about doing it yourself? There's two of us up here that are doing it.

The thought briefly crossed my mind. Just don't have the time and a warranty is nice to have (wife saw the guys on Fast N' Load wipe two new motors). Haven't built an engine (car or truck anyway) in over 20 years so I figured I'd let the experts do it. I'll do the removal/installation though.

call Phil at BG Automotive in Ft. Fun. Really good buddy of mine and has had a couple engines rebuilt up there. Has a lot of good off-road knowledge as well. Has helped build a couple of KOH trucks and a Baja 1000 truck as well.
