I only know of one dismantler in Rancho Cordova. That's Silver Star Recycling. The phone number doesn't match up though. Also on Silver Star's website their old eBay user name has been canceled.... I'm thinking that this auction is run by Silver Star but they're being kind of incognito about it.

The description of the engine being "remanufactured" is a bit false. If all they did is put new head gaskets on the thing, then I'd hardly consider it to be remanufactured, and certainly not like a Porsche reman engine.

Bottom line, I'd give them a call and ask them for a bit of history on the engine and more detail on what was replaced or refreshed as a part of their "remanufacture" job.
