I would love to hear about them also.
I think they are only a day trip away from Seattle.

Is the 4k in Canadian dollars? 'Cuss that's what 150$ US? ;)

I went out there, the 6.2L fully-dressed is listed at $3638. I went through the 'add to shopping cart' to check shipping, when I did it also applied a discount of $181.90, bringing the net price down to $3456.10 (plus shipping). Looks pretty attractive... smile.gif

Before, during, and after buying my 6.2 MH I spoke with the guys there.

They really seem to know their stuff.

I also have a story somewhere about some guy in Portland who went to Alaska in his UniMog and ended up in one of their satellite shops due to a shop in Portland totally mis-timing his diesel. Ended up that his engine was fried due to the mis-time, but these guys really took care of him.

And even though they didn't know a lot about the 'Mog engine, they did their legwork and came up with the right answers anbd parts, but that the prognosis wasn't good and it wasn't worth putting the parts on. Turns out the Mogs use drip timing. Ugh.

He chose to put the parts on and go for it, but the guys were right and it blew chunks less than 800 miles later.

I purchased my 6.5 from them not 6 months ago. They were great to work with and knew their stuff. They go through a huge number of engines and really know what works and what doesn't. The engine ran me a bit more than advertised due to the gear drive and drop in kit, but with the exchange rate and no tax, it was still a deal after shipping.

Results: It's a very strong engine and has been nohing but a dream. One small thing is I replaced the thermostat and one of the pump lines had a small leak, but easily fixed with a wrench. Also replaced the radiator at install, since why take chances? If you go the turbo route as I did, I would recommend putting 3 to 5 thousand miles before installing it. As the fellow with the Mog found, engine problems tend to reveal themselves fairly quickly.

Good luck!
Jon
