David was most assistful when I needed assistance locating a used transmission for my truck. I was thrilled that he located the part for me. If it is delivered as informed to me and fits and functions, I will be very happy. It is to arrive in a week. Thanks David

The motor does run great I was so concerned when I saw the shape it was in when removed from the freight truck. I still believe when you say you are going to clean up the engine you should follow through and not give excuses for failing to do the job promised. Thanks for a running engine.
