Post by: 197 on May 07, 2006, 01:18:00 PM

Was this a good deal? I bought it anyway so I wount have to mess with rebuilding the other one.

Looks OK .If it has been rebuilt properly,it should run great.Don't know if its a good deal.Up here in Canada,it would probably cost $400.00 for the same thing.
