salvaged or re-built engines

[TAC]

Hey I have an 07 gtx 4-stroke and a 04 gtx SC 4-stroke both with blown motors, where is the best place to find salvaged or re-built motors?

I wouldn't buy salvaged unless I KNOW how that ski was treated. For example, if my tech said that somebody crashed into his ski and the motor is still good, sure. OTOH, if it comes from Billy Bob's Motor Salvage........

SBT is supposed to be good. There has been some questions about the 4TEC motor which uses the bearings made in China but that is about it.

I saw those motors on SBT. They look great although I don't think I want to be spending $2200 and $2700 to fix both skis. I have a decent knowllage on how to rebuilt motors, are these seadoo 4-tecs hard to rebuilt yourself?
Could somebody point me to the best place to buy parts online?
