Anyone else here buy an ATK crate engine and regret it? I put a 5.7 hemi crate from jegs, in my 04 ram. After restoring my truck for 2 years and trying to break in the engine at low speeds, pulling out of the driveway the other day my engine blows. Low RPM low miles. I built it to the exact specs ATK provided with the engine. So I called jegs and atk and of course they tell me the warranty is up. They didn't give me the time of day. I have pictures but the sight keeps telling me file to large

I have not ever heard or read anything good about those guys. It kept me from pulling the trigger on one of their pre-eagle 5.7 stroker engines.

Here is what you can expect when you buy an ATK. Not sure if these pics are coming up.

No pics yet, try to reduce the resolution settings to obtain a smaller file size.

Another quick and easy method to accomplish this task would be to display the jpg on your PC and use Windows 10 Snip & Sketch to grab a screenshot, save using Snip & Sketch and then try to upload that file, it should be a much smaller file size. :cool:
