Like we said, we are professionals to find quality used engines. We’ve a huge selection of engine suppliers in our networks and we’ve an excellent system for quality control and accountability. In enough time it takes a mechanic to contact two or three of his buddies, we are able to get you quotations on multiple engines from a large number of suppliers and producers. After we get you a great engine at an excellent price, we are able to ship it right to your mechanic’s garage by freight. It’s a win-win situation-you obtain a better price on a better engine and the mechanic doesn’t have to waste his period playing mobile phone tag with junkyards. But of program, you can give us a call directly and save even more money.
Either way, you’re likely to pay a huge sum on a brand new car or throw away money upon the Driveline Motor markup upon a utilized engine that originates from who knows where.
Alternately, your mechanic may provide to discover a used engine to put in your car. Again, you will have a large markup on the price tag on this part-and you may or may not have any say in where he gets the engine from and even less knowledge regarding the quality of the engine and the reputation of the auto recycler or junkyard that sourced the engine. Many mechanics have got relationships with one or two car yards where they obtain parts and the perform little comparison shopping in your stead, which is usually understandable-they’d rather be in the garage than on the telephone all day.
The next option that your mechanic might recommend can be an in-house engine. If they provide a good price and so are a devoted engine shop, this may be a good option. But in our experience, we’ve discovered that only a small number of shops that perform engines genuinely have what 
it takes to do a quality job.
In most cases, they’ll source it to another repair shop. And when that occurs, you’ll be billed a significant markup, not to mention the hassle of experiencing to undergo two parties to get status updates and estimates on your repair.
