Sounds like a pretty good deal, any history on it? How many times has it been re-built (bored, decked etc..) Has it been magna fluxed or dye checked for cracks? Aside from any of those fears it seem like it would be decent buy.

Decent price. Cam is on the tame side for sure though.

Yeah it is, but that would be a change he would make anyways depending on the head and intake choice. There would not be any benefit to building the top end around that stick, that's for certain.

ok, the engine had been rebuild once, as for everything else i am not to sure. It has about 5000 KM not miles on it. And he has a potential buyer but i am nbext in line and i think i can get it for a good price 800 or cheaper. He is a greatseller and hes has been referred by many i have talk to about him. So i think it mihgt be a go if the potential buy changes his mind. if not i have some opther parts.
