Default RE: 90 sized engines

I will grant you they are not inexpensive. Definately not along the lines of chinese built products. More along the lines of the top end Japaneese and European built pattern engines of a few years ago though.

Looking back a bit, I seem to recall paying somewhere along the lines of $220 - $325 for OS61P, YS61, and Hanno 61 engines 12-18 years ago. I believe the YS120 was more. I would imagine most folks considered those rather expensive. I know I did! They were a far cry from the $99 webra speed .61 I first started pattern with Along those lines, the Jett engines are not too far out of line.

Consider this though, they are made in Texas, USA, made from domestic materials, real chrome sleeve, one of the best carbs anywhere, each one is test run and set up before you get it, and are supported with customer service directly from the man who designed, fabricated and built the engine. As I tell some folks, there is a lot more to the value of a product than its price

Anyway... hopefully they provide for some options.
