Do a Google search... you will find some forums where they say you get what you pay for and some where they say run.

In my opinion trying to save money on remanufactured engines might not be the smart way to go.

Well, the name doesn't exactly inspire confidence ... as a strip club maybe, but not as a marine engine rebuilder.

But, who knows - they might be the best there is ...

Caveat Emptor - let the buyer beware. Just as with any business such as this - check them out thoroughly. As Ross said, they may be the best thing since white bread or they may be really bad. Do your homework.

I heard you will get better service if you pay in ones.

Try stuffing a few in the carb, or the fuel lines.

If you get near the exhaust, you might get slapped !

That cracked me up! Happy Halloween everyone! Our house is full of 6 grandkids all trying to carve pumpkins right now. Tonight with all that candy in them we'll have to duct tape them to the walls.

Yeah, the name is enough to scare you away.....not necessary considering remand engines, they had some good prices on new too......but I don't think I'll be buying anything from anybody that is 3000 miles away.....especially when warranties don't cover removal or re-install. Leaning toward rebuilding my rotating assemblies and and heads then building from there...........John

GO GIANTS!!!!
