The ATH HP 94M 383 Stroker I Have Is a Lemon
I know ATK is a respected manufacturer of automobile engines, but the ATH HP 94M 383 Stroker they sold my cousin in 2020 is a real lemon. He installed it then while restoring and hot-rodding the Chevy 210 that's been in our family since my uncle bought it new in 1956. But he got Covid, passed away, and never got to drive it with that big engine. His widow kept the car and drove it a bit until 2022 when I bought it to keep it in the family and continued to restore it. The engine has had problems ever since, even though it has only a few hundred miles on it. Blown gaskets, oil leak after oil leak, groove in the intake manifold, etc. Finally, my mechanic opened it up and found the rings installed in the wrong order, fixed that, and then it threw a lifter. I've spent thousands of dollars trying to fix that engine. It would have been cheaper to put in a brand-new crate engine. I'll never buy an ATK engine again.
