Hi All. Has anyone got any experience of Powerhaus VW in Torrance, LA, CA I am looking to buy a turnkey 1776cc and wondered if anyone out there has or has heard of the quality of standard of there engines? I am taking it back to the U.K so can't be having anything going wrong with it etc etc. I have the one of the U.k best air-cooled engineers to fit and tune it up for UK fuel but worried about the quality of the parts used etc to build the engines up?
They do seem a good set up but need advice good and bad please???


Thanks a lot guys Very Happy Very Happy

Check their facebook page for lots of pics of what they build. Beautiful shop and finished product. I haven't personally had dealings with them.

If John builds a motor for you, he makes a photo album, and a video of break in, then shares it with you via email. The shop is super clean, work area is cleaner. A good look into how they operate when building your mill. He built my dad's 2332, it's a smooth runner.
