Columbus Engine Builders

There used to be a place in Columbus that sold engine parts nationwide called Columbus Engine Builders. I think they changed to Columbus Performance Products later. Anyone know what happened to them? I searched but didn't see them listed anywhere.

I know they were around last year as I was considering buying a crate motor from them. I believe it was them I'm thinking of.

That looks like them. They used to have ads in all the car mags back in the 80's and 90's. Guess they got too big for their britches.

I need a 5.8 long block for my 1995. It's been replaced by a flat tappet motor and I'm thinking about a roller cam motor if it doesn't break the bank.
