I still think, had these been Chevy's they would have run right from the beginning, but i am biased.

Ive used them for years now and never had any issues with their new or reman engines. Great price on both.

Ive been buying from them for years now with no issues. Good prices on both new and reman Engines.

We ran them on blocks, after everything else, first trip out the right hand engine rear main seal started leaking, I am assuming a left hand seal was put in on the reman. Let's say it is just me, but after everything that happened, I won't go back to them.

Yes, you said that 3 times. You just joined this site, have 3 posts, and all state how happy you are. Seems to me you have something to do with the builder.

A lot of rec mass production boat owners do not know of any sort of engine problems until 1, the engine does not start anymore 2nd the engines noise becomes so loud that they get online and ask is this normal posting a youtube vid, 3 rd if their bilge fills up with water, 4 th is their bilge fills up with oil. 5. if something is smoking and just so happen to notice it or a very loud warning horn going off but most ignore the very loud warning horn anyways.

Nope. They helped me out plenty since I started doing business with them. I just hate to see places like this getting bashed when they've
help people like me when I was in a jam. Didn't even charge me when it really was my fault.

I bought a new long lock from them in October of last year. I am couple hours away so went and picked it up. Got to see shop and save some shipping. Has been trouble free so far ( have little over 50hrs on it)
