make sure and inspect the motor right when you get it. go over all the small details.... make sure and ask them for the pre-stretched rod specs and ask them for the stretched specs... this will help you if you have to take it apart later on...


like i said any time you get a motor the first thing to do before the truck leaves is inspect that thing like a dirty magazine.
