Worth buying an LS Motor
Some guy is selling me a full complete B18B swap really cheap but the motor has been sitting in the car for like over a year without it being turned on. Plus the car didn't have a hood so it has been rained on. Is it worth buying the motor and if so what do I have to do to make it RUN???? Please Help. Thank You

I would try to see if he'll let you do a compression test before you buy it. I assume it's in his car because you said it got rained on because he has no hood.

If its be exposed to the elements the dizzy will prolly need to be replaced. But a compression test is a good start, are you getting a full swap? Make sure your getting a good deal before buying it.
Good Luck
