Last chance to talk me out of puchasing a new engine!
I'll be selling a snowmobile I have in the next couple days, and I've finally settled on an Orient engine for my 89 4Runner with the 22re engine.
I really wanted a Jasper, but hate to spend that much money on an engine. Will I have any regrets for not buying the Jasper?
My 4runner has zero rust and doesn't get driven in the snow and salt.
Last comments before I take the plunge? Thanks.

22re
I don't have a reputation yet, or a warranty, but i'll sell you a performance rebuild for $1400.00 No core charge
I've done 4 engines, all but 1 run fine still, and that was because he had a cooling leak and kept pushing it hard on a hot day.
Current one, no miles yet, bored .30 over, .30 over forged pistons/ moly rings, ported/ polished head, 261c cam, new crank, oil pump, water pump, gaskets, timing chain, etc. Custom painted valve cover...ignore the passenger-side York compressor and extra alternator in the pic...It's a 22R but use your intake and knock sensor and it's a 22RE.
I have an ad in a Peoria, Illinois-area classifieds magazine...
Toyota 4x4 Broken? Experienced mechanic & fabricator. Rebuilt frames, engines. Custom bumpers, beds, lifts, tire carriers, racks, etc. Reasonable prices. 309/202-1682 Pekin.
PS...Nice, clean 4Runner...i've got a customer's '84 in the garage, and it is Rough...i sanded off the paint and instead of metal it's mostly rust and rotten bondo...

I appreciate the offer on the engine, however, I'm going to stick with a big name company for warranty purposes. Sounds like a great engine, though!!
How much better is the Jasper vs. the Orient engine? There must be some significant difference in motors for that kind of money difference. Thanks.

Background: I run a full service repair shop. We have been installing Jasper products for yrs, but recently have had several "come-backs" on their engines and transmissions. It has always worked out for the customer in then end, but they DO NOT want to backup their warranty.
Several years ago I got a JDM engine from Midwest Engine in Cleveland, OH and got excellent service out of it.- Just for another option...
