So as some of you know my engine locked up about 2 weeks ago. Been lookin, thinking, and pondering........


Well bought an engine with 90k on it 6 month warranty for $2200 shipped.

He said between $450-$550 to install w/ new fluids.

Hows that sound?

good price on the install

I just hope that engine gives you another 90k

used engines are always a gamble, hell, sometimes new ones are a gamble

take advantage of that 6 mo warranty though, hear anything weird or strange behavior get it fixed

may be beneficial to send in oil samples during that period as well

Ever used them before Mike? I just ordered a kit from them. Guess we will see how my engine is doing.
