Remanufactured Engine Or Used?

[Nooblin]

I have a 2001 mustang gt with a blown engine. I'm not sure which route I want to go with to get it back up and running, reman or used. Has anyone here ran a Jasper reman'd engine in their mustang?

The big advantage of a remanufactured engine over used is warranty. Jasper at one time had the best reputation in the industry.

ATK and Proformance also sell reman engines with a good warranty.

I've sold all three over the years, and of the three, only Proformance had a significant comeback rate for failures.

I've installed ATK and Recon (Recon is no longer in business) in a Dodge truck and a Mustang, respectively. Both were trouble-free.

If you're cool with everything being in black spray paint and having a professional install the engine for warranty purposes, a remanufactured isn't a bad way to go, but can be pricey.
