I have a GEX rebuld in my syncro. This engine has shown all signs of oil pressure problems from the the day I purchased the Van, with 10,000 miles on the engine. It now has 74,000 mile on the engine with leaking head gaskets. The installer created most of its problems. Most people would agree that GEX engine are not real great, but I have gotten my moeny out of this one.
