I have the opportunity to buy a 1990 SI HB for $500 with a possible blown headgasket. Anything else I need to be on the look out for? I have been around EG's for awhile, haven't owned a EF since 2000 and have kinda forgot what to be watchful for.

Pending pictures, do you think it's worth the $500 ?
It apparently has a D16y8 swap, but I dont know much more about the car.

Thanks for any insight.

just anything you'd look for when looking at a used car. idk if rust is a problem where you live, if so check usual places for hidden damage. one thing it appears si's are famous for are clogged drain tubes.
