Check this one out !
 
Can't beat the price; that's for sure, but the feedbacks are so-so.  There good enough to take a chance, but it's border line.
 
Also, he doesn't take PayPal and I'm not a big fan of cashier's check or interested in opening an account with BidPay....
 
Anyone delt with him before ?
 
I sent him a question : "Do you have it in stock and is it perfect fit ?"
 
If not in stock, then I can understand why most people only received it after 2-3 months, but if it is....

He may make them up as they're ordered, but that's no excuse for poor communications and legal action, regardless of how good a product it might be.

I asked him on ebay if he had it in stock and if it was a perfect fit.
 
He replied within 30 minutes with Yes and Yes.
 
I'm still debating.  I'll sleep on it and decide tomorrow.
 
Thanks for the input.
 
Nice engine Paul.  Was it a good fit ?

Minor tweaking was needed but nothing critical

Well, exchanged a few emails and spoke with the guy today (his name is Tony).
 
Long story short; I ordered it.  He said it will ship on monday.
 
I'll let you know!

He's not a bad guy

I spoke to him a lot prior to buying also.
