Have you asked him why he's selling the engine after all that work/money? Maybe he wants something that'll start every morning.

Ya I daily drive some 660 lift motors on the street, 260@50, compression a bit touchy, see what head gasket hes running now and see if you can play wih that to lower CR. Quite frankly though, those HP/TQ numbers look horrible to me, for what has been done to that motor

Let's see if I got this straight....only driven to church on Sunday, never in the rain, worked on it for 3 years, has a long list of expensive stuff on it, and only wants 3k AND you get the tranny? Yeah, I've put this new engine in my car to putt around and never even plan to get on it, and later I'll give it away for half price to my neighbor. My advice, run like the wind.

361 hp at the wheels? That's horrible for a n/a 2v motor? I beg to differ...just a day or so ago people were saying how 350 at the wheels was all but unachievable in a streetable car. The torque I'd agree with you, I'd expect about 20 more, but I might be wrong on that.
