2. I'll NEVER, EVER buy another used engine UNLESS it's in pieces and I can see and check all of them! :shock: Been there, done that! Just too much s could be wrong that you can't see.

3. I've bought a TON of stuff from Ron Owens Racing online mainly because I know him from this and another forum. He will also stand behind what he sells, has prices competitive with both Jegs and Summit on most stuff and a bunch of times I've gotten stuff from him in 24 hours!

So yeah, selling online is a crap shoot for both the seller and buyer and without some kind of way to make sure you're not going to get shafted, IMHO it's a hard sell. :wink:
1st off Hello Old Friend Hope your doing well !

2nd i believe and practice what you just said.


for those of you that don't know Ken, he has been around a long time in the racing game..i have met him in person and had lunch in N.C. a few years back.
