Which engine builder has best warranty?

I am doing some research here to see which engine builder has the best warranty.

I also am basically trying to discover at what point the marketing scheme of providing a warrantied race motor became public.

The earliest account I can find of Pineapple Racing's 5yr warranty is early 2001. Someone prove me wrong, now!

most companies have a 1 yr 12,000 mile on their warrenty when you ask them, but none I have seen are close to the pineapple 5 yr warrenty. I was tempted to get one but there are tons of local shops around and I didn't want to deal with shipping

I believe MAZDATRIX offers a warranty.
Check out their website and it should explain in more detail.

keep in mind that NONE of these including pineapple will warrant the motor against a blow Apex seal, bad oring. The only thing they warrant them for are leaking oil and engine seizing.
