Default Is $400 a good price?

I found a d16z6 swap on craigslist near me for $400 that I want to swap into my 88 std It comes with the complete swap. The guy said it ran fine and wasn't beaten on. I work part time and money is tight for me, and like anyone else, I don't want to get ripped off. The swap has 130k miles on it. Is this a good deal? I just don't want to swap it in and have it burning oil and/or overall running like poop or not at all.

lol STD.

Anyways, you'll need to convert your wiring harness for MPFI and get a different ECU. I'm sure you already know this, but I just wanted to put it out there just in case. Otherwise, it seems like a pretty fair deal.

Honestly, at least where I am, you can get a high milage LS Swap, complete for the same amount of money, so my first notion is No, it's not worth it, but that's ONLY if you can find a Dual Cam swap for the same money, other then that, if you can't, then while i'm STILL finding that swap over priced (A d16z6 goes for 250, 300, and that's with EVERYTHING around here), but maybe still worth buying at the end of the day.
