I will flatly say this at this time and will detail in a later post, I would go with Stephens and would by no means buy a rebuilt air cooled head from AVP again. The chance at not getting a core refund is worth it for quality, and outright the price is about equal, you just take a chance on an expensive core with Stephens, but there is probably good reason for that. However although I've emailed AVP a couple of recent times with no response, I have not yet called to bitch so I reserve judgement fully till I do so. John Anderson vwbus@netbiz.net |
