Has anyone on the board ever done business with these guys? They are out of West Sunbury, Pa and remanufacture powerheads. If you have done business, were you happy? I have heard a couple very bad stories and that is why I ask.
 
BOUGHT A 1999 175 JOHNSON OCEANPRO WITHOUT VRO FROM THEM LAST YEAR. LOOKS GREAT, SOUNDS GREAT AND RUNS GREAT EXCEPT FOR LOW SPEED DOCKING. ENGINE LOOKED BRAND SPANKING NEW. IF I HAD TO, I'D USE THEM AGAIN
 
I would just do an internet search on them. I think you will see enough come up to answer your question. FWIW, I would not even think of using them based upon what I have seen. Anyone can make a mistake, but jeesh, these guys seem to make a lot!

Too bad most people associate "WARRANTY" with "QUALITY".

It is heavily exploited in the industry.
 
I only heard bad things about them. If Jasper will do your powerhead use them, they rebuild for Yamaha.
