ok so I see something pretty similar between dlm website and atomics website its pretty much word for word the same with there blocks do both these companies offload there work to a outside contractor or whats the go? how can 2 different people have the exact same advertisment for there assembled motors just running different pistons and rods? im confused lol

Atomic make some specialised that no one else makes and if your making big HP you just can't do without. Alot of engine builders use atomic bit parts in there engines. Like I stated above I used a lot of atomic parts in my engine and mates engines 95% of the parts were perfect a few I wasn't happy with but Brad immediately sorted it all out for me. So the bottom line is like with any product something is bound to go wrong here and there but if the supplier sorts its out for you then they are 100% in my books. All we were trying to say here is keep your options open and do your research before you spend your coin.

I run all the atomic parts Matt, they go great. After sales service is the key with making these big power plants. If you want a motor build with a mix of parts call iDyno.com.au tomorrow in NSW and just ask Brent for a street version of my motor. He and I use all brads and DLM gear. It's not all about the gear it's about the assembly of the parts and tuning of the combo. Use the correct gear for the job. Correct cams for turbo and head combo.

yea understand the process of building something big hp but the idea I'm getting from this thread is brads gear is brilliant but the assembly is a bit of hit and miss depending on who assembled it? just thinking going to bite the bullet and buy a long engine off him. have no doubts that for every upset customer there is 100 happy ones out there.

Sounds like you've already convinced yourself that atomic is the way to go and nothing that anyone says will change your mind.

Seems to me like the thread is a waste of time.

A subcontracted built engine is too risky. You want direct contact with the person who builds it. Maybe someone who dragraces these engines. Didn't DLM build that monster destroked engine on youtube. People like that.

Why doesn't someone give the spool short motor a shot instead and just chuck a new head on it will still be cheaper then 10k for atomic ?
