I get asked about crate motors all the time. They are good if you do not know how to build an engine and have a machine shop you are comfortable with. And YES most crate engines come with a warranty. But my problem with crate engines are that they are built on assembly lines by hourly workers who do not have much incentive to care. The hemis were a good example. They were known for being bad out of the box. I have a friend with a 68 Road Runner that went through two until he got a good one. I bet Mopar did not pay for the labor to change them or the furl and time to return them. I have always felt you can have more for less money.
