If Buck's motor doesn't pan out try **** or an American parts supplier. If you can find some one who can pack frugally and ship via US postal service you can beat the high shipping charges. Go for a small box. Even if you buy an engine to convert you have most of the important converson parts (mount and prop adapter). If you buy from an individual have them declare the item as a gift it will cut down on customs fees. Even if you have to pay $20 US it may still be chaper than sourcing an engine locally.

Just as a little aside, Rcpilet, what you suggested is probably not the best idea. It is, in fact, stealing, and is, in fact, punishable by law. what you decide to do is your business, just don't suggest it to someone else. Also, that kinda stuff drives the prices we all pay for our merchandise up, as the manufacturer has to cover for the cost of that engine, so they up the prices that honest people pay.
Just my 2 cents.

"CUSTOMER SERVICE" is a long lost art and a dirty word to most companies these days. If companies took pride in caring for their customers the way they used to years ago, things like Rcpilet mentioned wouldn't be necessary. Nowadays, it's a "take the money and run" mentality, and more and more companies won't even pay someone to answer the phone for customer questions, forget actually stand behind their product in an efficient manner.

Just my two pennies on the table,
