They're based in California I guess japan engine is just the company name. I had block sent to the machine shop blew a ring scored the wall, it was bored .60 and I don't like that so I'm hunting for a block.

I bought a long block from them this summer. I got the one with the turbo gasket set $1750.00 shipped to the door (hard to beat that price)... So far so good...
