Clay was able to tell me of yet another engine supplier in
Atlanta, and no one here in town has mentioned them, really
is called "Best Japanese Engines."  Several years ago he
picked up a GTI-R motor for a grand and has had no problems.
 I called them yesterday (NO 'net exposure, ONLY in yellow
pages) and while they have no pumpers at the moment they
said now $1350 for an SR20DET engine and transmission.
Apparently they don't bring in clips or sets. Anyone besides
Clay have any experience with these folks?

ALSO, I have run into a number of motor sellers and wrenches
who talk only in term of "red tops" and whatever other
colors Nissan paints the cam covers. they have no clue
whatsoever about differentiating by the labels GTI-R,
Bluebird U12 or U13, or Avenir. Is Nissan compulsive about
painting the cam covers particular colors for particular
engines so I can converse accurately with these folks???
THANKS
Jer
