Does anything raise red flags.

Has anyone dealt with this seller?

Is it a fair price?

I made the mistake buying my last engine before coming to the fourm. It was a 2001 and my car is a 2003 with different timing setup. Too much conversion for what it's worth, so I will try again.

I have made sure to confirm the fitment of this 2006 engine into my 2003 this time with my mechanic. So we are good there.
Has the non serivceable IMS bearing, unlike your 03 engine did.
