I've bought 2 delco remans ($100 each) and have had good luck with them. they have a one year warranty, same as a brand new one

lol..don't answer like a highschool jackass and it won't be a problem. you want to act like a ***** i'll treat you like one.

"i'm sure you've got the cash"

what is that suppose to mean....can't you just answer your opinion to the darn question without trying to be smart or rude?

If you'd stop to think about it, most people wont get them due to the price, ASSuming they'll get the same thing with some parts store rebuilds, the question was answered, if you wanted to know why, instead of being the highschool jackass you should have asked.

Hey, come on guys... :nono:
IMO, stay with a set made by GM. A "chinesium" set probably won't last as long as a good pair made by GM. Can the burned out set you have be repaired? Or would the cost of repair be reason enough to just get another set?

I'm sure they could be repaired, as places sell remanufactured ones, which are fairly cheap at around $50 a side, i've installed a set of New AC Delco's in a set of doors for a customer and they were definetly quick, very nice, put a set of autozone replacements in my own a while back, nowhere near as nice, however i believe the AC Delco's were $170 each or something outrageous.
