Driesbabe, You are correct I don't think they will last long... which is why I was saying just in general not directed at anyone.. if you based your business on these engines you were in trouble.

As far as the DL.. yeah it's a great option.. but it's really not that much cheaper in the long run. The engine is now $400 and you will sooner than later have to buy a DA muffler for it which is $70 + shipping. So at $470 you have other options that aren't that much more. Yeah if you compare to DA, ZDZ, or 3W you are going to have to spend $200 more all said and done.
