Has anyone bought an engine from these guys?
I'm looking at buying a used short block from a guy. I offered him $200 and he accepted, now i'm just trying to do some research and make sure the guys who rebuilt it are reputable. When i first bought my truck the guy said he had just "rebuilt" it and did a piss poor job (less than 30k later oil burning and blow-by). so i'm trying to avoid the same mistake twice.
Engine 22-RE said to have 30k on it.
Engine tag shows:
" the bore 040, mains 020, rods 020
compression #1 200 #2 200 #3 195 #4 200
oil pressure 41, oil flow 63, Amps 7
engine rebuilt from fliteline engine supply in AR
engine was installed in truck by american engine installation in the springs."

with 30k on the clock the motor should still have plenty of life in it as long as it was redone well. I went and listened to it no major problems evident, though admittedly i'm not the best at listening for problems. any suggestions or thoughts?
