Just because you buy a motor from a cheaper place doesn't mean it's going to be bad. I got my motor from a very cheap place...the first one was dead so they sent me another and I got to keep the dead one for parts. But the second one is awesome...very strong and reliable...I beat on it and it takes it all day long.

[right][snapback]337758[/snapback][/right] sounds like you got lucky with a place that was honest... but the fact that you got a blown motor the 1st time around is a bad sign. its really a pain in the ass to try to return a clip -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
