Default Motor Meister good/bad/indifferent?

Need input on Motor Meister in CA. Looking to do a rebuild. Seems like a seemless process just pull the motor and ship it... get back a rebuild. Experience anyone?

Go to Pelican Parts website and search on them... feedback is all over... a lot of negative feedback. Might want to read some of those threads...

I called and spoke with Motor Meister some time ago when I was considering having my 911S engine rebuilt. Their answers to my questions made it clear to me that they would say whatever they had to get my engine into their shop ... the old "promise anything, deliver nothing".

Most of the other members' experiences have been the same.

I visited their shop many years ago. Mostly airtools on motor work. I did not get a good vibe. Be careful here.
