Warranty and extra parts on a clip are also good if you find a local place. this is an option because you may be able to rent a truck and drive an hour or so and pick up something nice. that would cost you less than shipping and is worth it if you are getting a good deal
that was one of the key selling points when i decided to go with HT. Their old shop used to be an hour away from me, so i just picked up my engine in a minivan also, when i was lacking parts..he helped me out a few times.
