I have repaired a couple of these units in the past.Before you spend any money take the rotor and stator to a motor shop or even a generator repair shop to test and check them out to see if they are ok(phone Generac for the proper resitstance values and testing proceedures). If you are going to use this unit on a regular basis $240 is not a bad price(considering most other parts from Generac are overpriced) but make sure you get a warranty with the long block, replace the bearing on the rotor and set the speed(3600 rpm exactly with a load or 60 hz with a frequency meter plugged into an outlet with a load). On the other hand if you are only going to use the unit if the power goes out keep your money-unless you live in a problem area. Honda units are still the best all around units, you pay more for them but the are very reliable (as long as you don't allow the generator to get wet during a storm-this is when the generater cooling fan draws moisture over the windings which can damage any brand of generator-keep in a reasonably dry location when in use).
