What do the engine terms mean?
A used engine is a tested original unit that has not been rebuilt.
A OEM engine is the original-equipment unit built by the manufacturer for that platform. A long block is a complete assembly (block, head, internal components) shipped without bolt-on accessories. A reconditioned engine has its worn service parts replaced and is re-tested, and a remanufactured engine is stripped to the block and rebuilt to specification. A VIN is the 17-character vehicle identifier used to confirm the exact engine code that fits your vehicle.
