Hmmm... i might have to jump on this. Is this all the engine compents i need? What else would i need? Im also meeting up with another guy who has a 91 drivetrain, but the engine needs rebuilt. I might snag this, then snag all the other parts from the other car. Think i can offer him 550 and get it? Or is that too low of an offer.

well considering i payed 500 for just a stock motor i'd say thats a great deal.

*i know i over payed, but i needed one in short notice and there were only 2 in town the other was half melted and he wanted 550*

Unless it has an external connecting rod I don't know how you could go wrong
