how much...from private or dealer...with papers of course?
have a close friend that knows about this look at the quality of the swap to see if it isnt a hack job... and if it passes state inspections

check the head stamp to see what year the motor is, and make sure you know the definite answer as to why theres an LS tranny on it. If the B16 "shat the bed" it was probably beat on. I would run a quick Compression test on it too...its quick/easy, why not
