NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't do it, their engines are gash, you can google, trawl through the forums etc but to save you the effort they all say that they should be avoided at all costs...........I bought a gear box and then decided to check up on them after it didn't arrive, it did come in the end but I have had to spend money to make it work!!

just the first one i came across when I googled smr engines
I have read stories of engines being stripped and rods/pistons thrown in a pile then someone else just grabbing random rods and pistons and cleaning them and rebuilding the engines without any care. So I guess they are doomed to failure even if they have been 'opened and examined'.
