Thanks for the feed back ! I'm in the process of packing my stuff as we speak, and i'm also considering putting my engine in a crate and sending it over there. All of my components are in excellant condition. The engine I have was rebuilt by a Mazda Dealer in Va. about 30k ago. I look forward to going and meeting as well as doing business with some of these people, thanks again !

WORD of CAUTION!!!

I don't care who is assembling the engine, make sure that you are RIGHT BEHIND them, making sure that everything is installed as supposed to, AND that you are getting everything you are PAYING for

They can't, let's leave it at that

Yes, the overhauling video is a must, I used it as a reference for my very own first rebuild
