| The two pictures above are of a custom Goodwrench Universal Engine that our Race Shop built for one of our customers. They had me take pictures of it before they shipped it out, so people could see that there is more to options then just what is listed below here. This isn’t the only custom crate engine they have made. It just happened to be the next one they made after deciding they needed pictures of one they have done, put on the site. I believe they said this one was going into a Model T. I have a page made, where you can see more pictures of this custom engine. Our Race Shop has made custom built up crate engines for a wide range of applications and customers including Hollywood. One of their custom engines was in the Green Hornet’s car in that recent movie of not too many years ago. | |
