Got two quotes from sw one h 2.2 non vtec, one 2.2 vtec, the quotes were the same even the millage they said was on the motors(83 k). I called them to ask questions and they hung up on me without even answering any questions. Buyer beware i would not trust sw.

After waiting almost a month for the engine I purchased to arrive, it showed up today and it is definitely not a match to what VIN i gave them. Not to mention it has a hole in the valve cover and doesn't come with half of what they say it will have. I'm seriously questioning the miles they told me it had on it. I would strongly recommend " buyer beware"! Customer service was no help and very rude.

Complete sham company. I paid $1000 for a long block motor, which supposedly had $70k miles on it (which they also say they cannot guarantee). When I received it (28 days after order) the pan was cracked and held on by 5 of the 19 bolts. Rear main seals were bad. Oil in the engine was sludge. All they did was pressure wash it and paint the block black. They refused to remedy any of the damaged parts because "that's not part of the warranty," as the CSR yelled on the phone. When you buy a long block engine, the pain is included...you don't get to make up your own definitions of engine components. Steer clear of this company, they're a complete rip off.

warranty sucks. bought and engine forgot to activate warranty so they wont do nothing for me. engine only went for 6000 miles and failed. so I don't recommend this site for people with business especially mechanic shops.

I ordered a used transmission fro my minivan. After two days I called as I had not received any email about when it would be shipped. I was advised they had not sourced the transmission and it would be 14 days. before it shipped. I canceled the order and thought that would be the end it. They did not refund the purchase so I called in , transferred to a supervisor and was advised it was an over site. Two days later they refunded me less a 25% restock fee for transmission they had not even found much less shipped. They did not mention this when I canceled or when I called about the refund not being processed. They are Crooks. Steer clear of these thieves.
