426 stroker, is it reliable?

I would stay away from Hughes engines.I only live 10 mile from Hughes and I do NOT buy anything from them and there is a reason for that.

I have to say , a statement like that needs to be explained so please PM the whole story to me and I will keep it to myself if you don't want to explain it publicly , and for the record I lived in the Lansing area for 10 years so I am not unfamiliar with some of the local families but have know direct knowledge of anyone associated with Hughes at least that I am aware of .
