I purchased one of their 496 stroker kits on ebay.They ship every part from a different vendor.It took a couple of weeks to get all the parts.The crank wrapping looked pretty bad with some roaches in the box.That got me a little scared, but when I fit everything together it all fit very well and the clearances were all good.I put the motor in my boat and it has sustained many hard runs.Just make sure you check everything out and know you get what you pay for.

Look like raw casting Eagle products that are finished in house then matched up with some cheap Probe pistons. If I were to ever buy something that cheap, I would surely have it double checked by a reputable builder.
