RE: Engine swap, I need help! Everyone look
ok guys, there is a problem with this, the engine and transmission are in NIGERIA! I dont know if i should know this or not but i dont think there is nothing around there but a bunch of half naked african americans carrying spears, lol, y would they have a 99 Cobra Engine and tranny? Does this sound legit to you?? Anyone bought anything from someone in Nigeria before? I just dont feel like getting ripped off. What do you guys think?

id make a police report about this too or report it to someone... i would only do something like that if it was local.. i got scammed 7k once and i will never make the mistake again.. but this was from germany... more than likely its just some guy looking for some easy cash... how did he ask you to pay him and where does he say hes located? he doesnt seem to know enough about the motor to say the least... since yea, in that year, the car had a tremec 3650 transmission (5-spd) and also a non supercharged DOHC engine, they were not supercharged till 2003.

i have to agree with everyone who's already
said IT'S A SCAM.
sorry but there is NO WAY this is legit. it
really was to good to be true
Keep looking and you will find a good deal on a 4v 4.6
somewhere in the CONUS, that will be legit

ya, i backed out of it, i guess my search is still on, if you guys know of anything, let me know. Thanks for your opinions, and by the way, i was trying to be funny about the "african american" joke to all of you "critics" that had to be brave and speak up about it
