Engines.

I am just wondering who has bought a engine off line (other than egay.) and had a good experience with the company they bought the motor from, as well as the name of the company and the website if they have one.

From who exactly? Saying you got something off ebay is like saying I bought it at the store. Who knows what store, if they are still in business, if they were cheap, etc.

I'm not saying you got a bad deal... not at all... I'm saying that "ebay" is not who you bought it from. Buyer beware. Same with craigslist AND this forum.

corksport. Motor was exactly as described. Swapped it in my se with no problems so far (over 1,000 miles and counting). You will all hear me repeatedly bash them if it blows any time soon.
