Joe Sherman SBC
 
My Nephew is thinking of buying a motor from him.Anyone on the west coast use one of his sbc for bracket racing?Pros,Cons?

i live on East coast and Never heard of him..but i bet many people on the West Coast has heard of Gene Fulton and Par racing engines located on the East Coast...if this tell you anything..
not saying he ( Sherman) is not a great engine builder....i would definatley check his local references meaning people who have had engines built by him..i would speak with a minimum of 5 references,if you can't find them..then RUN !..a motor is the quickest way to get burned in this business...trust me on this one..

I found an article about an engine he built, attached it here: It was published in Hot Rod Magazine.

He also has a website. Seems to be very well known. Joe Sherman Racing won the inaugural 2002 Popular Hot Rodding Engine Masters Challenge I'd say he is the real deal.

Sorry I didn't word that very well. He is on Speedtalk all the time. Ed Wilson on here can probably give you some good references on him.

We have excellent engine builders that are on RJ all the time and you might want to consider one of them also...
