    Have any of you got an engine or had them rebuild your motor?

    I talked to them today about a motor and they are $9,800.00 cheaper then my dealer was.

    Any good or bad on them???

    Looking for a c-16. They said it would be $25,500 outright. Best price I have found by $9800.00 plus I dont need to find a core so that will save me a total of about $14000

    I know nothing about engines or engine work, etc, and the only reason I looked at this thread was because Fenton, MI is my home town and where I live.

    They seem like a real good outfit.

    You can park in the KFC / Goodwill parking lot if you had to.

    RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!............. I've got a customer that was promised a C-16 from this company a year ago. As of today they are still waiting after they paid for the engine almost a year ago. Unfortunately he also sent the guy parts to build the engine up to a higher Hp level. He had to send someone to pick up the parts along with the sheriff, I don't know if he got the parts back or not.

    NDE doesn't have the money to be able to refund him for an engine he never got.


    RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    [they also claim to be in tampa florda, sept of 2011 we sent out motor to tampa fl and @16000 cash for them to rebuild our core...what we got back was a used painted motor from Fenton MI...after several calls we recived parts to rebuilt what they sent us and they do not stand behind any warrenty at all...then we found out the motor sent to us had been in a wreck and was badly damaged...and NDE denide this...that will also throw out the name that Catapiller will warrenty there motors and cat has never heard of them...drivers, companys beware...it took us severl months to even get a motor back let alone a rebuilt one...and the motor recived was not even the one we shipped...i have several pic of the fact as well...

    I contacted them a whyle back they advertise on Diesel engine trader.
    I was after a 6nz . The price they gave for a fully rebuilt 6nz sounded to good to be true to me. And I decided that when something sounds to good to be true it usually ain't .

    I've heard more of the horror story of how this guy got started. All I can say is he really doesn't have any consciences


    Him and the GREAT One in Buffalo could give each other lessons and laugh all the way to the bank with the unsuspecting truckers money
