Yea...atkins doesn't reuse anything. Every internal is new or at least remanufactured. Nothing used really goes into the motor..my motor got all new housings, seals, rotors, bearings,etc....the actual motor cost me 3400 shipped w/ a large streetport, better internals, and 2mm 2pc seals....
But then it only cost me 1550 for the engine.

Different story for me. Atkins give me used rotor housings and sides. Probably the only thing new were the apex seals. Motor broke a main bearing less than a year later. Guess what, no warranty on bearing failure.

I believe what he meant was they don't reuse stuff if you pay for new, some places don't really disclose what is reused and what is new. You were probably fully aware of what you were buying and got exactly that, and paid a reasonable price for it.
