Re: Tyler Crockett Marine

Re: Tyler Crockett Marine
Tyler's upgraded/built three engines for me and all are still running flawlessly. He builds for reliability and torque - exactly what you need in a boat. When I visited his shop he showed me a set of 496 heads that he upgraded by reshaping the combustion chamber, porting, etc. and they looked great. He was on the ground floor with GM on the 496 development.

Re: Tyler Crockett Marine
I have approximately 400 hours on blower motors with no problems to date. I recently had compression tests conducted and they still are strong. I do change the oil regularly and don't abuse the engines. Tyler is a stand up guy and I would recommend him to anyone. He will always do my serious engine work.

Re: Tyler Crockett Marine
Tyler tuned my blown 540 on the dyno,he was one of the first guys to be able to rtune mefi3's and has done develipmental work for gm. You could eat off the floor of his engine assembly room. If I didn't know how to build my own motors he is one of the few guys I would trust to do it,Smitty

Re: Tyler Crockett Marine
Tyler installed the upgrade kit you linked on your original post to our 454MAG this year. The boat, 2000 Checkmate 259 Convincor, went from 65mph to 72mph @ WOT with the kit and a different prop. Could not be happier with his work.
