Been discussed here many times. They also have more different names than you can count.


Key things to look for:

1. they use the same basic template for all their websites

2. 7 year warranty.

3. In the north west usuall yaround kent washington


Google is your friend. Embrace it, step into the ligh. Before spending a dime google the company name and reviews, the name and complaints....

google "rebuilt engine 7 year warranty" and see how many of those places are in washington state....

Call when you need to. Heck we talk boats , engines around here at least 10 hours per day. ZZ 454 performance Auto set up, not the best choice out there for a marine app.

I went out to their website and began reading the home page. The first clue as to what you are dealing with is the fact that they can't spell. Some grammar lessons and sentence structure classes would also be a good idea.

A thief by any other name is still a thief. Just MHO.

Just had a new GM crate engine installed in my Formula covered under my insurance policy... I couldn't find a shop anywhere close to me that would use US Engines and stand behind them. They said "pick anyone else. Anyone." I even called and talked to them to try and get the low down, guy sounded like an idiot over the phone. Check em out on the BBB. I tried everything I could to justify buying from them cause it sounded like such a deal, but opted against it obviously. Sounds like I made the right choice. Lol
