try to find one off someone on here. it will be a lot less or you could get something with some mods for the same price as you would from a dealer.

i don't really want to buy from anybody. i'm tired of scammers and getting scammed all the time. its hard to trust anybody now a days. i just want to buy from a legit company.

My suggestion is to find a local yard that has what you`re looking for and this way you see what you`re getting before you buy it. Now this may not mean everything, but every company I have dealt with has offred atleast a start up warranty. IMO, this is the only way to but a motor.

Mail order motors=
