PHP Brap...it's what's for breakfast.

Just got my engine back from PHP for some offseason reconditioning. Zack was a breeze to work with and stayed in contact throughout the time from before it shipped to delivery. Can't speak for performance yet but will give a review this spring. As for now, its been grade-A work and customer service. Hope to have rave reviews in about 5-6 weeks.

Before u ask. It was Mcdog's old billet 5 mil ADA / Jetworks engine. I sold my lamey end of last year and bought this off Mcdog. It was on last bore, needed new pistons/rings and crank rebuild, so instead of new sleeves and old school rehab I sent it to Zack @PHP for this:

1. Crank rebuild with Oem/koyo bearings
2. Reworked cases with fresh epoxy
3. Cylinder hone and Nikasil coat
4. New Wiseco pistons/rings
5. Powder coat
6. Reassembly

Pretty much a new engine to me. Before the rebuild this was prolly one of the hardest hitting sub-1000cc engines I've ridden. Always been impressed with the tuning and power this put out in Mcdog's Freak. He upgraded and I'm the "house dog" that picks up the scraps that fall from the dinner table. Ill mate it with my ATP Flame TL, 144 skat mag and bpipe. I like the convenience of a bpipe vs pfp but that may change depending on how it performs.

Glad you're happy with it bro! I think you will be very happy once you get that out on the water! Zack is definitely dialed in the motor world!

46's. i thunk

Yup. Traded mcdog my 48 BJ's from my lamey for his 46's since that's what was so dialed on this setup.

Zack over at PHP has had my money for an engine he build a year ago and still to this day I can text or call and I get a reply every time and even when I had frustrating times on my part he kept calm and had answers even the most noobie questions I had. Great guy and builder. You have any performance updates for us? I'm Drooling over that engine he built for you.

Ur correct, that was a very good engine. The cost to rebuild both was going to be more for the Dasa versus a complete, top to bottom refresh and assembly on this engine from PHP was quite a bit less. I wish I could have kept both. That Dasa/Lamey ran awesome with TL, high compression and CHP fuel. It turned my stomach when I bent that rod.

I haven't had a chance to run it yet. Work, kids, wife and weather have all conspired against me to keep me off the water. Hope to complete my off season build this week or next.
