Title: Redstone changfa alternative?
Post by: matt on February 01, 2010, 04:25:10 AM
Hi there,

Anyone seen one of these before?

Looks like a Redstone/Changfa crossbreed.
One very substantial flywheel!!

Has a spin on oil filter as well underneath! There are more pics on Alibaba but will not allow me to copy.

Edit.....  It says I can buy one for US$12 and $257.28 postage. Not bad if it is legit!!!

I would buy a few if it is legit.

At that price, count me in for 15 of them  :D
No doubt it's an error....
Those engines are probably about $750 Plus freight, Plus duties, plus port fee, plus brokerage, plus...plus...plus.
Most likely would end up landed in North America for around $900.
However, they don't meet the current USA EPA regulations so it's not worth checking.

Good point Matt,

My reply was to hwew who is in the USA. I will try to be more generic in my replies.

BTW, I'm not in the US either  :)
