it's a 150.00 dollar motor all day long.....I've bought numerous ones with 60-70 k on them on ebay before for 100-125.00 no joke, last one I got was 125.00 for complete long block

Yeah, a bit pricey if ya' ask me.

There are complete Explorer P head engines that include accessories, upper/lower intakes and TB/EGR that go for under $500 around here.

I'd pass on that ebay rip off and keep looking for one a little cheaper.

from his own ad:
"ALL PARTS THAT WERE PULLED OFF THE MOTOR WERE USED ON THE BIGGER I PUT BACK IN THE CAR TO KEEP LOOKING AS STOCK AS POSSIBLE THAT IS WHY THEY ARE NOT ON THE ENGINE"

so he's using the stock intake and exhaust manifolds on a "bigger" motor. sounds like an idiot id avoid like the plague.

buy your motor some where else. and since your swapping motors, nows the time for a 347

the biggest question is why are you swapping the motor yours blown or why moving to this motor like lucky said this would be a good time for a stroker motor
