JEGS crate engines are reverse engineered to create a product that has better than new quality. Reverse engineering allows any factory original defect to be found and removed, saving you time and money by keeping your vehicle out of the shop and on the road. Every engine is issued a certificate for testing compression, oil pressure, and water temperature. JEGS crate engines feature a 36 month/unlimited mileage warranty.

This engine is designed as a universal, budget replacement engine for most GM vehicles or can be retrofitted into virtually any vehicle or hot rod. Producing up to 195hp using an OE carburetor, intake and exhaust manifolds, this engine can make up to 260hp with headers, performance intake manifold and a 4-bbl carburetor.

Engine Break-In Procedure

Use conventional or break-in oil (non-synthetic) for the first 600 miles of operation. Do not drive for long periods at any single speed, always vary your speed. Do not tow a trailer or put other heavy loads on the vehicle. Check the engine oil and coolant levels daily. 

At 600 Miles change the engine oil and filter using conventional (non-synthetic) oil. Check fuel and ignition settings; adjust valves (where applicable).

After the first 5,000 of service synthetic engine oil may be used. Follow your vehicle owner’s manual for service intervals.
