Yeah, there's a catch... The engines are unknown condition, so you gotta use your best judgement. I look for vehicles that have been in a wreck and low mileage. The wreck means the vehicle was running when it was brought in. I also will pop off the valve cover and check for sludge. I've had good luck so far. The engines come with a 30 day warranty too.
