he seems legit...if you check his sales history, he has sold over 100 rebuilt heads in the past 6 months...only 1 person had a problem, and it could have happened during shipping. Almost everyone else says great seller, quick shipper, and head worked great, or looks great upon arrival. I would do it if i had a cheap d-series to rebuild. Actually, for $230 shipped to my door ready to bolt on WITH cam and rockers included, im thinking about buying another Civic with a shot motor and buying one of these heads....

That's pretty nice. I should fix the knocking Y8 shortblock in my garage and slap a Y7 head on, eh?

Maxi-me swap!

Edit: Or $276 shipped for a Y8 head, even better.
