Warranty is not worth the paper it is written on. I bought an engine in March, installed it in my 30' Sea Ray. The motor ingested water after 9 hours of use. Joe told me to bring it up to Skowhegan and he would tear down in front of me he would fix any defect he deemed was his fault, I asked him about damage the water ingestion caused, he said I was on my own for that. I called Joe back and asked him to reconsider to make it right, he declined. I tore the engine down myself and opted to bring to a local machinist that I have known for 40 years. He found the the starboard head was very deteriorated and was really surprised it was installed on this engine. This is not the Marshall's we all knew years ago, it has been purchased by an employee. I would not trust these guys to rebuild a lawnmower engine, never mind an engine in a boat that I take my grandkids out on the ocean in. I doubt if they gave me another rebuilt I would trust it after this debacle. I have installed 10 engines in various boats (all brand new engines) and never a problem. I will purchase another new and install, and take this as a lesson learned.

Class act form start to finish. I am a Charter boat captain on Eastern Lake Erie. I had them supply me with two Chrysler 318 long blocks. They were there with answers to some of my questions in hooking up the intakes etc. I ran into absolutely no issues throughout the coarse of the fishing season. I plan on sending the two blocks that I have and having them done for spares next fall. Jasmine was just great to deal with!!! Shipment was delivered flawlessly. A+++++++++++++ Thanks Again!

THIS SHOP ISINT WORTH ANY STARS BUT AT LEAST ONE IS REQUIRED TO LEASE A REVIEW. I have done business with this shop twice for marine engines. The first time I received a 318 Engine with a badly scored cylinder in # 5 and the wrong timing chain unfit for marine service. The engine had to go back. The second time I purchased A 318 Reverse rotation engine. They used a modified rear main sealing method by polishing out the helix from the crankshaft as he didn’t have the correct one for reverse rotation as Chrysler marine put the helix in the crank and not the seal as done in Ford or GM based engines. This is not approved by Chrysler Marine or Felpro gasket company and was not the sealing method he explained he would use when I spoke to Joe Horton Of Marshall Machine and authorized the charge to my credit card , again the engine had to go back. After the engine was returned I found a Rocker bar on backwards , when I called Joe he said it didn’t matter. The service manual for this engine specifically states the Proper installation. After installing this engine upon initial startup it had bad blow by that is pressurizing the crankcase in spitting oil out of the dip stick sleeve and the rear main seal has a massive oil leak. The compression is well under 100 PSI exhaust port temps are 100 degrees below that of the normal running engine. The engine is useless and has to come out and worse than the bad engine I replaced . I purchased the first engine just as the new ownership had taken over in 2013 and this second engine August 2016. Marshall Machine claims his engines are bench tested before they leave his shop, That is not true. It is the consumer who is the test of these poorly rebuilt engines and it is the consumer who has to deal with all the headache afterwards. this purchase is in dispute with the credit card company and he's lying like crazy. I do not recommend this shop as the quality is below substandard and leads to major Headaches and expenses. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR , FIND A REPUTABLE SHOP THAT IS BBB AFFIALTED AND BUILDS THEM CORRECTLY. 6/12/2017 So, now after six months I have finally had chance to get this junk engine out of my boat, I have removed the rear main bearing cap to see why I had such a massive oil leak only to discover that after all the discussion and promises about how he was going to do this seal the rear main, even after taking the engine back over the seal issue to begin with I find that he completely lied to me, He used a standard rotation crankshaft and that was the cause of this massive oil leak. If you look closely at the seal you will find the helix grooves in the crankshaft are set for standard rotation engine. This guy promised me he used the correct crank! Also this engine had such poor compression I had to put a bar on the flywheel bolts to loosen the balancer bolt and flywheel bolts as the engine spun over with no resistance. HE IS A LIAR AND A SCAM ARTIST who does spray can rebuilds. I HAVE A GOOD MIND TO SUE HM FOR ALL MY EXPENCES.
