I think you’re dealing with Japan Engines. I’ve gotten many engines from them in the past and haven’t had any problems. I don’t think you should have any issues going with an engine from them. Keep me posted on your progress.

hey Eric since i saw that you liked japan engine i went and bough a engine for my van and it ended up costing 845 plus seal,belts ,water pump ect and when i was done the engine didn’t have compression and would not rev past 3000 rpm. Im not blaming you but i don’t recommend them.The engine had tons of carbon build up and i has to clean everything off only the find out it was a junk engine.
