I called Radley today about the price on this (195hp) engine. After getting transferred to about 4 different people, I finally spoke with their "engine guy". He was able to hook me up with the previous sale price! ($1352.99 + free shipping) I don't remember the guy's name, but if you call them looking for this good price, ask for "Pracillia" and give her a sob story about how you were going to buy one of these last week, but missed out on the old price and you were hoping they would honor that previous price. Whoever she transferred me to ended up sending an email invoice that was able to be paid with the choice of either PayPal or credit card.

THE TRIGGER HAS BEEN PULLED!!!!
My son got the engine pulled today in his 70 GMC K2500. We will tear it down today/tonight to see if it's worth rebuilding or to pull the trigger on this engine. Do you think I can still convince them of the better deal?

Also, someone else mentioned that they had them throw in a harmonic balancer and something else for a few more $$. Anything else I should consider getting through them?

Total, how many days from placement of the order did it land on your doorstep for each of you? I realize you're across the country on on, but what about others?
