Crating and Shipping

living but there is a passion that comes with having this be what we do every day and the cool factor of knowing where it's going and if you look at this one um you start to see that's a black throttle body poly sniper fuel injected system so you've got a traditional carburetor and then you've got a fuel injected throttle body style uh fuel injection system that we installed so again lots of different options that we produce or that we have purchased for us that we put on our engines and then the guy installing this does it over and over and he does it in his spare time so i can't i can't propose to you a better way to have it done than to have somebody who does it over and over and that's our goal is to make it as turnkey as possible for the end user you've got an 376 it's got our base engine offering on it that we would typically offer and you can see we've installed you know the front drive kit and the pulleys and everything that would need to go with it to help that thing be as close to turnkey as possible we don't have a transmission on it now but we do have packages where those transmissions are available which is a great value for the customers so after the engines are tested i mentioned we cut and do a filter inspection on every single one so we go through and look for anything in the filter that doesn't look right they get cleaned we put labels on them we put a serial number with every single engine so if somebody has an issue they can come back to us and then when it's done it gets a bag on it to protect it during shipping and then it gets a crate put around it so it really takes the mystery on why we call it a crate engine that's one of the common questions that we get well that's why there's not a lot of scientific knowledge to it it goes into creating out the door so who builds the crate for the crate engine so we have a company who builds who builds different components of the crate for us and then these guys put it together if it's a deluxe engine like this has got the fuel pump it's probably got an air cleaner on it water pump all of those things it gets a lot more protection and shipment because there's more that can be damaged you can also just see the the crate style with the open slats on the side doesn't require as much protection in transit so based off of the level of dress that's what determines the level of sophistication of crate needed uh so this is our research and development department uh we're doing some uh dyno testing on a…
