That is the third or fourth CS engine that fellow has listed, wonder where he is getting them from? Surely isn't importing one at a time is he?

Ok, here goes with my first Newbie question:  Are the  originals better quality than the Indian clones?

Thanks

Without any doubt... Cadillacs to Volkswagens. (no offense intended to VW here). The quality and finishing on the original Dursley Lister is exceptional.

Yep, I just knew someone would not like that weak analogy. At any rate I couldn't think of any third world car brands that people would know, except for inferior VWs being produced for decades in South America.

In contrast to shoddy Cadillacs produced for decades by Detroit?   :D

How about Mercedes to Trabant?

John is a good guy.  He imported several to help defray the cost of bringing his personal ones over.  I thought he imported three, but perhaps he ended up bringing in more.  Not sure if this is one of the ones brought in for resale of if he's decided to sell his personal engines as well.

Looks like a very nice engine!
