tomei japan is still the ones building crate motors.
personally I have not heard of any failures from their crate motors, but anytime someone says "my friend heard of _____" its a red flag to me, not actual first hand information. If anyone PERSONALLY had a tomei crate motor fail on them due to mechanical issue, i'd be interested to hear it.
tomei USA website shows all the photos and information of engines being build by "Tomei Powered" which is tomei Japan
