Has anyone ever bought one? And also with all the add ons, how much horse do they make?
ur better off building you're own engine.
I must confess... I feel like a monster!
DO NOT DO IT......You will pay now and get the engine maybe this time next year.

if you even get it.
do a search mate. just JBP, all forums.
that will give you the answer you're looking for.
I can do the same thing JBP will do. Take your money and give you nothing.
PM me for paypal info.
I know a few people who builds engines, for about about the same prices at your own specs, but mostly do big block engines. I didn't know anything about JBP and thought I would ask.

Warranty of an engine build???? good luck with that. MOST machine shops dont warranty @!#$. regardless of who installs the engine.
I have one.
It's fine, altho there are a few things I don't "trust" in it. I installed it myself but it was built by JBP.
It took him almost a year to get me my completed engine, after being promised it would take 3 months at most.
While I have nothing overly bad to say about MY engine, I wouldn't recommend you go to them for one. I am a very rare 1% that has done somewhat successful business with them, the other 99% of people get ROYALLY screwed by JBP.
And that's an honest opinin from somebody who HAS a JBP engine and has dealt with mev personally face to face many many times. Everybody else who has posted just has an opinion, not any real experience with them.

Slowly but surely may some day win this race...
i said what i did because of the parts used in most cases.
the colt cams regrinds have yet to prove themselves worth a god damn in ANYBODY'S engine, let alone the mythical ones out there.
that and JBP just loves installing that 'higher volume' pump and balance shaft blanks. pffffft.
wasn't there somebody on here that did indeed buy one from mev and it ended up nuking bigtime or cost a lot and nothing was done? something like that???

I speak out of more than just opinions....I have had crank work done and it took a loooong time for him to complete the work, not counting customs there or back it took 11 weeks to get it done. Very nice work, top notch actually, but unreasonably slow.
