From what I have seen they make great starters but there alternators arent the greatest. I have seen a couple die in action already with less than a year on them but I have one friend that loves his so it seems to be hit or miss.

Whats their warranty like? I assume you'd be buying direct so it would have one...

I am aquiring this in a trade, and am unsure about the warranty. The fella said he might have the invoice for it. I might find out if the warrany is still good/transferable. thanks for the input guys.

I had one in my last car and had no problems. I had it for less than a year before I traded the car in though.
