Buyer beware: used motors and VINs
Just a heads up..
if shopping for used motors, be sure to ask for the donor vehicle VIN and run a mileage check (you can get unlimited requests for 30 days from carfax for around $20)
Interesting to see how many motors being sold as "just over 100K" end up belonging to cars with 143,379 miles when run on a carfax..
