I wouldn't want to buy a motor that is advetised as being bad. You'll have to tear it down and find out exactly what is wrong and what would need to be replaced.

Thats a good deal if you only want the motor since the car has a salvage title..

I agree with blueshadow though..Nobody knows what the hell is wrong with the motor..So you'll have to tear it apart and find out what wrong..It it could be something magor or it could be just the rings like the guy said..Its a gamble..

That might be more of a headache then a good deal..

Looking at the pics, if you get all the parts I see, I'd say thats a smoking deal. Especially if the motor just needs new rings.

Yeah, that guy REALLY needs the money for a good education since he spelled college as "collage".....

I wouldn't trust it......then you get a motor with a cracked block or a warped head or something and you're screwed.....
