I think I love it when complete motors are stood up on their oil pans.
And the name KarKing is kinda hokey.
It reminds me of the stupid-named place that my roomate bought a his car at... Car Jack Auto.
If you're going to do a complete motor swap, you may want to spend an extra couple bucks on a basic rebuilt 6-bolt from a reputable DSM shop. If it has been built or gone through correctly I don't think it would be a horrible deal but who knows what was used or how it was built. If you go this route, you may want to ask a ton of questions about the internals and other components such as: if the crank was reground, what parts were used (mitsu or non-mitsu bearings, pistons etc.), if the silent shafts have been eliminated(and if so, how it was done) etc. This way you have a good idea of what you are getting and if they knew what they were doing. You don't want to end up with a big $1150 pile of metal in your car that now has to be taken back out because KarKing didn't have a clue what they were doing.
