anyone buy any engine kits from DNJ? there are so many different markets out there hard to decide.
They have a kit for just under $400 that includes: pistons with wrist pins, rings, rod and main bearings, head gasket set, lower gasket set, freeze plug kit, and cam bearings.
Pretty good deal compared to auto parts.

Not looking for top dollar, it's got the regular piston skirt slap that they get so this is to fix that along with few other parts while there. Any other companies yall have had experience with for similar price range would be great. Thank you
 
EBAY sells 3 row aluminum radiator with dual fans for $138.00 Anyone have experience buying these?
As much as I've tried to convince the guy he doesn't need one, he insists so I'm a first time buyer for these lol.
 
Don't know the company, but you generally get what you pay for. Carolina Auto Supply in Charlotte, used to have the lowest cost parts around, may still do. Your suppose to have a commercial account to buy there. As per things like rebuild kits, they were mostly Cheap Junk!
Last radiator I bough for my CJ, was copper. With company discount, either 2 row or 3 row were about same price, which was $ 180, back in 2005. Haven't priced any since then.
 
I've used dnj gasket kits & did a Nissan motor once with their kit. Other than the kid doing it screwing it all up (timing), seemed to fit and seal ok. Not bottom of barrel but not top shelf either. Like @rodney eppes said, you get what you pay for. I was going to go that route for my stroker but decided I'd be better off putting a custom kit together and saving money by reusing a stock later model cam and getting better pistons, name brand bearings, & gaskets.. the dnj stuff is straight up Chinesium. With radiators, you get what you pay for but sometimes you're just paying for the warranty, which is why RA sells the same Spectra radiators everyone else does but it's only 30 day warranty lol.
