Quoted 67k miles "tested" engine. NO paperwork package/proof of records. Shipped on mini pallet, sitting on used tire with one steel band wrapped in shrink wrap. Boy was I a sucker and I thought my online ordering habits were solid. One lapse in judgement wasted almost $2k. No customer service, no order details (repetitive canned responses each call). Shipping notice did arrive late via email so that was about the only positive attribute. The engine that arrived looks like it was pulled from a million mile oil bath and rolled down a concrete driveway. Valve covers were both broken, looks like head gaskets had been replaced, mix match bolts. Heavy carbon deposits in exhaust ports, debris in the intake openings. Oil pan dented, At least 1/8th inch dry gummy oil on entire top half of block, even where there should be no oil. Relatively new looking water pump. Manifold and exhaust mating surfaces scratched. BUYER BEWARE I'm cutting my losses and moving on.

Don't Buy from them Scam
Bought an engine from them. It lasted 3 weeks and less then 750 miles. Tried to get them to replace it under there warranty and they would not. I asked to see the results of there test that they did before they shipped the engine to me and they would not send it. Bad Company. They have more law suites. Dont buy from them

ZERO!!
ZERO!!! SCAMMERS!!!!
This company false advertises engines & Transmissions that are junk. They use multiple company names such as, Engine & Transmission World (& Team), Remann's Used Engines & Transmissions, Jasper, SW Engines, Southwest Engines, Quality Used Engines & Transmission(& also Team), Gear Head Engines, Engine Shopper LLC, and many more!
They send bad engine (RUSTED, hydrocarbon issues), don't refund for core, IF you get a 2nd engine, they don't pay for the labor to have their bad engine replaced! They claimed I never did the warranty although I called them several times a day (hang ups, transfer to, no one answers) for 6 months now. I WONT STOP!
It's all a SCAM & THEY NEED TO BE STOPPED!!!!
SUBMITTED request for GOOGLE to Shut Down their pages!!!
Read the reviews and you will find the links. People are getting ripped off everywhere. Multiple lawsuits from others and I'm working with the DA in my state.
Send complaints to Wiscosin Consumer Complaints, too.

Update: Please do NOT remove this post!!
This company has many subsidiaries and has cheated many people, including myself. I was shipped an engine that was bad and contacted them for months to finally get another engine. I had to pay the mechanic two times, rightfully, and they were supposed to pay for the replacement per their contract. They did not!! I had to charge the fee on my card to get the car and avoid more stirage fees. I have contacted them for over a year and they will not refund that labor, nor the core fee for our initial engine they has us ship back; and also, I also had to dispose of their bad 1st engine they sent because they said they would charge me if I shipped it back. Do your research and you will find all the names they do business as (DBA) and you will see all of the complaints online of customers with many issues with this company and affliates . I will continue posting until they refund me the full amount with interest I've had to charge on my card. I am disabled and living on a fixed income and they will no longer answer my calls.

swEngines No good even BBB cant help…
swEngines No good even BBB cant help you. Now that is sad. There are so many people getting it right up the but. The banks still work with them. Pay tomorrow. They try to help you and get no were. But still lend money so you can lose the money. You all think maybe they are working together with them. Charge cards tell you to stay away from scum like that. I think I would have a better chance with a hooker then SwEngines.

**** Be Aware**** No Professionalism…
**** Be Aware**** No Professionalism at ALL**** 4 mouths no Engine
I purchased Set on the 20th, 2022, and as of today, I have not received the engine. My invoice number is # 404735. SW "shipping Manager never answer any call after over four months. One of the Managers, Steve, does not even know how to delete his own cellphone voicemail it becomes impossible to get anything done if you can not get anyone to give any update. One time I spoke with Nick at shipping that he would call be back but no callback.

SW Engines is a wretched scam
SW Engines is a wretched, significant scam. I paid >$2500 for a high quality rebuilt motor and got nothing. When I called SW Engines, they said my credit card cancelled the order and they charged me $650 for cancelling the order. My credit card company (Citibank) did not cancel the order. SW Engines then ghosted me when I tried to get back with them. This is an example of fraud.

Thanks to all reviewers
Well, I was going to buy an engine from SW, but I decided to look up reviews here on Trust pilot first. Thank you so much everyone for giving your feedback. You saved me money I do not have. Blessings to all of you. You did a good thing for me and I am sure others. Jesus said (paraphrased) Love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength & do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

I ordered a Cadillac Deville engine…
I ordered a Cadillac Deville engine from them on July 22, 2022 Invoice # 399116 with an estimated delivery 2 weeks later. What was delivered in early September was a worn out piece of junk. I spent 2 days cleaning it up only to find evidence of head gasket leaks and overheating and sloppy attempted repairs. When I notified them, they falsely claimed I had removed the heads which voided the warranty.
