one of my friends got his b16 long block from them it was in good shape and i live in tucson az so the crate shipping they use is pretty nice, so i believe they are pretty good, just remember that their engines are not rebuilt, so its kinda luck of the draw which is the same as any engine stocker for honda engines, so when u get it u may need to do basic maintance before it is installed, ie timing belt valve lash, replace oil plug, water pump, thermostat o2 sensor all the basics so keep an extra 200 bucks and replace all that before the engine is dropped in to give urself an even better set up. good luck
