Engine Rebuilds on ebay
I know it sounds crazy and the price looks too good to be true but take a look at the following and post your comments:

Anything that looks too good to be true, usually is too good to be true! I don't think MotorMeister have a particularly good reputation either from what people have said about them on here! Perhaps someone who has first hand experience with them will chime in.

Yea well take the time to see what the feedback is... All the feedback is for the same crap over and over; banner flags, spanner wrenches, non Porsche parts and for some reason there's a run on early zenith manifolds... Not to mention each feedback is recorded twice...one for the flag and one for the box?....
Also if you read the description the price is for them to "rebuild" your motor for $4995, so you pay to ship it to them they rake it apart and "clean & polish" whatever the he'll that is, they polish your cylinders? WTF? Anywy then the reassemble it with your original parts unless they are "broken" or "damaged" in which case they can either charge you for new or use "reconditioned" aka: used parts and charge you extra...
A true rebuild would be a description of the parts to be reused and the factory rebuild tolerances before a part is not reusable and then the new parts which will always be replaced...not some iffy "cleaned and inspected" qualifier... And no I'm not a customer of MM but this ad and history of several Rls would have me running away...
