I had the exact opposite experience. The first ls engine i got from them was leaking from the front seal at the 500 mile oil change. It started misfiring due to lost compression on four cylinders of one bank so they sent me a replacement head. The front seal was replaced under warranty but it wouldn't stop leaking. Sonce i had purchased the one time no questions asked warranty they sent me a replacement but blamed all my issues on the installer. I went with a different installer that i knew i could trust. Leaked from the front seal on the first oul change. It was also making a strange noise. A third shop recommended by them said it was a blown thrust bearing causing the crankshaft to leak. The company wouldn't warranty the situation saying i must have either raced tge truck or towed an enormous load. I had done neither. I've actually never even been to a racetrack. I highly don't recommend this company. They build shoddy products and won't stand by them. Every mechanic I've talked to including the dealer, said that they had gotten over on me. They certainly did but never again.

I got 330,000 out of my original 5.3 before I had a valve squeak and then my oil pump went out so I ordered a power train engine for $2600. Waiting on the install now. The reps at power train are a lot better than Fraser, Fraser wouldn’t even call me back and couldn’t answer simple questions and seemed irritated that I was asking. Didn’t even consider Jasper.

The Engine is covered under warranty but as of close of business July 6th they hadn't shipped the replacement engine to the shop. Dan has been my person of contact and seems to be helpful, He's supposed to call me with the tracking number and email it to me. i will be doing an updated video soon
