They say 12 mos on their web site but the sheet that came with the last engine said 7 years. My guess is 12 mos in mh use would be more like it.

Jerry,

Twelve months makes sense; I reckon if there's something wrong with the rebuild I would think it would show up in the first 12
months!

Regards,
Rob M.

If I recall correctly, when I was talking to them in '13, the motorhome/boat/etc warranty was 12 months but much longer for passenger car use....7 .years rings a bell.

The videos of their remanufacturing process is impressive. But I’m easily impressed.

I’d have to call to see what a new motor would cost - a 455 for a Vista Cruiser is a little more than $2k which sounds reasonable to me.
