OK ppl .. here is the scoop .. my engine was bought Aug 1. reached local delivery company by the 4th .. here is the b***h .. someone forget to add my number to the package .. lol so on the 11th i started asking questions .. they told me it was delivered? lol i freaked .. but found out it was just sitting there .. like 20 miles away .. i dont have a vehicle so opted to wait till the 14th .. got it on the 14th .. ! receipt says OSAKA Motors ..?? inspected it and all was well .. engine in fact is the cleanest ive gotten so far .. was happy .. i dropped it in on wends night .. didnt replace a thing on it .. this is a 90 b16a v.1 .. i know .. weak ... but all i can afford .. and usuallty i replace alot of crap on these engines but as i said this thing looked NEW! .. inside and out .. was amazed .. oil was still clean and smelled ok .. lil old .. but so far it runs awesome .. no smoke .. dont overheat .. screams its lil weak vtec head off .. cool huh .. so all in all i saw the experiance from them was a 8 out of ten ... ;) would be a 9 but i got a lil fustrated with them cuz they didnt give me a track # asap and when i called the guy was "out" .. no call back .. :( but all in all .. good stuff .. would do again.

I bought my swap from Jazz Pro Parts. They f**ked around with me for about a month before they even shipped that damn thing even thought you told me that they would have it in their warehouse the next day. I called about a billion damn times a day for a month before I finally got a tracking number, they ship using Overnight Freight.

They told me my engine was coming from Texas and it magically miracaled it's ass to Canada because thats where it came from. Anyway, they are alright people to buy from, just slow as f**k to ship things. I got my engine with the knock and throttle position sensor broken. Luckily I was pulling out another H series to put this one in so I just took the sensors I needed from that block. Engine was very clean, tested compression and got 245, 250, 245 and 245.
