What about these, guys?

Good?  Bad?  Indifferent?

And seem no worse than all the others. Go have a look at it and see what you think.
You could bring a new one in for the same money if you wont to do the customs thing.
Always fun. The engine is about 15 years old, but if it hasn't had a lot of use its still a 22 hp engine with electric start.

Cool.  Thanks.  I brought in an ST-clone head a few years ago.  The customs stuff wasn't TOO bad
