Hey guys...

Anyone here ever dealt with MM or bought one of their King Krate BB stroker engines?

How did you find MM and the product/engine combo ?

Inquiring minds want to know

The few times I have dealt with mike and MM I was very satisfied. They have a ton of cars out there running thier engines. I have a customer car with one, a 511 stock block low deck and it works very well.

I can't speak for the King Krate engine but I have nothing but good things to say about Mike. He has helped me out with some parts and advice, I wouldn't hesitate dealing with him again.

I had Mike build a 528 hemi for me a few years ago. I'm very happy with the results and the service.

I don't know about the king krate but he sold me a rotating assembly and it worked great. Excellent customer service and if you need advice he will go out of his way to help you. I now buy most of my parts from them.

No crate motor for me but Mike & Eric treated me really good

all I ever complained about was how long some stuff took but was really happy once I got my parts

Mike is a stand up guy who I've known for a lot of years and will treat you right. He has the heads off of my GTX as we speak.

I have raced with a king krate motor. all I can say is, as you stage your car, make sure to have your jaw tightly closed, because, when your car launces... it will be hard to get rid of the grin that is from ear to ear ! In a dragster, we are talking 1.03 60'- 4.70's in the 1/8 with with a MILD tune up. on a test day it went 7.80's shuting it down at 1000 ft. and the motor is very consistant. go with the king krate if your car and you are up to it! oh-ya, did I mention this was on PUMP GAS! ?

I bought a Bracket Killer from MM and ran it for years and years and years without doing anything but adjusting the valves. They are great to work with.
