never really heard of anybody listing them as credible or not so I guess youd be flipping a coin on whether or not you get screwed. Hopefully it works out.

If you email this guy scmotors@aol.com he sells engines. I dunna who he is but I've seen alot of engines on ebay...

Personally I like 16v and you don't have to pay alot to fix them up

I would pay the extra $$$ now to get an engine from a reputable source. You can get a jap-spec, JDM POS from any schmo, but a company like JARCO has an established reputation. I know of someone that has used one of these cheaper sources, and he received a POS. While these guys do offer a warranty, shipping costs are your responsibility. Your cheap JDM motor may soon cost more than JARCO.

Yep...I went with a company other than Jarco and got the shaft. I'd never buy an engine from anybody other than Jarco.
