Engine Builders
If you were building a Hot Rod 128 or higher, who would you pick? So many great builders out there right now. I am going to have a Motor built in the next 3 months. Baxter out of Georgia, T-Man, the Moonshine guys(incredible stuff), Leading Edge kit from Az, are the ones I am looking at. Anybody got experience with these or a new name to the table?

If you are looking for a shop to do the build, I'd pick Kevin Baxter @ Pro Twin Performance.....
I am impressed with Kevin Baxter's attention to detail and his experience...
I know little of Moonshine guys work, but they just rub me the wrong way in their videos...
I never heard of Leading Edge in AZ, but why go to a shop in AZ, when there is a great shop next door (Pro Twin Performance)...
If you are looking to buy a kit and install it yourself, I would definitely check out FuelMoto (Wisconsin) and Hillside Cycles (New York).....

Incredible prices also ..and not in a good way! Your question could have a vast amount of answers, where are you located and how far are you willing to travel and that will eliminate a lot.

I can give +1 for Fuel Moto, I drove 17 hours each way to have them build and dyno my 128, great group of guys that know their $h!t and I would not hesitate to make that trip again for any future HD I get.
