water pump / engine rebuilders

[heinz wittenbecher]

Thanks Henry very informative stuff. Confirms more of "buyer beware",
unfortunately

Anyone have information/comments about other rebuilder experiences?
While I'm still hoping that my next overhaul is a long ways off I'm still
trying to "be prepared".

I still think that the best engines are prepared and sold by Joe Mondello.
Have never yet heard of a problem with one of his engines. If he builds
them with the care detailed in his technical manual, he puts a lot of work
into each one. For $5800 they are a fantastic buy.
