It's the exact parts listed on Dieselgeek and ECS (except the stretch bolts, but the numbers are similar).

I don't plan on doing the thermostat now anyway, so it's no biggie that he doesn't include it.

This is a savings of a little over $70 bucks--and even less than it costs to source all the parts individually. I don't really see a downside to using this ebay seller, does anyone else?

It may be a better deal, but you still have to order the bolts separately...

I would gladly pay more and have a definite source to go back to with issues. Both DG and ECS have had problems with the parts they supplied (thermostats and tensioners come to mind) and likely through the input from this forum, they solved those problems. I doubt that would happen with your eBayer... Just a thought.

Correct oem thermostat as well. It may be a few bucks more - but who cares.

I was just about to make some other snappy, biting comment there too, but I held back

ECS has the wrong thermostat?

Have people experienced issues with the Wahler?

According to MCP in the post right below yours, yes...
