hmm true it seem like no warranty at all. From what you say it seems like the warranty is from the parts manufacturer themselves not Pavtech. For example a new oil pump failure. But then whod cover your destroyed motor from no oil pressure?

Really i would say they should cover any faults in the machining/building related. I.E. bearing failure due to improper cleanrances or the like.

I wonder if the engines are tested before sale. Do they cover startup failures?

As the saying goes the warranty isnt worth the paper its written on

EDIT: Lol your username is rather apt :p

If you had a look at the site the only parts they don't touch are the conrods, so everything else should be covered.....they dyno every engine... I don't know why I'm defending them so much but we're talking about Pavtek not Procomp.

soz: independant observer here.

you were saying "is this or is this not a bargain" and one of your major points was the warranty

others have stated that there are HUGE holes in their warranties and that the engine is priced about average. so no need to defend. you get what you pay for. this engine will be better than a procomp equivalent, but still no one is perfect.

If you want to defend them, ring them (or email) and see exactly what ISN'T covered under warranty. Then get back to us....
