I contacted Doug quite some time ago regarding an engine build. I was attracted to the big HP number 302 based block on his website however after telling him what I was doing with my setup he took the time to inform me of what I would expect with the engine I originally wanted. He let me know it was a great drag race engine that lived in high RPM but if i wanted to drive the streets I would want more down low torque. Doug walked me through what would go into the build and what parts they were going to use. Ultimately Doug promised that the car would have a nice and flat torque curve that wouldnt fall off and still produce over 500hp. I went ahead and ordered the engine and the estimated time was 5 weeks. I got confirmation that it was indeed finished in 5 weeks. I called Doug about a thousand times with small questions and he took the time to answer them in depth, not just answering but really making sure I understood. I had Doug order everything else for the engine as well, water pump, and headers etc. When the shipment arrived at my house everything was in the crate they hand make which is very very sturdy! All of the accessories in the box were very secure so nothing was moving around in there. I haven't installed the engine yet into my car however I will leave another review at that point. Up to this point everything has been smooth sailing and Doug is a very honest and reasonable guy to deal with. The aftermarket industry needs more guys that truly care like Doug and the rest of his team does. Big shout out to all the guys at Prestige!
