I cannot say anything bad about them, as I am not familiar with the company. HOWEVER, for them to be advertising several THOUSAND BELOW Jegs, I have to pause. And ponder.

It looks like a farm house in the backwoods of TN about 15 miles West of Bucksnort and 5-6 miles North of I-40.
Go to Google Earth street view for 3647 Liberty Church Road Holladay, TN 38341

Threegotts sorta reminds me of either 3 goats or 3 times I gottcha.

They do have great prices, but then again, Bernie Madoff offered really good deals and we know how that turned out!

I would be interested in knowing experiences as well. They are selling a commodity product, so I don't care if they operate out of an outhouse or whatever, as long as they are selling what they say they are. I have a hard time seeing a down side, since if the product is not from Chevrolet as stated, then credit card companies will reverse the charge.

Good looking web site, not a hack diy thing. Prices on other engines are good also. They say "GM warranty" so couldn't one take a S/N and inquire of GM if it is the real thing? I wouldn't pay cash but credit card sounds pretty safe to me.
