Default Need advice on buying this motor!

Well guys, I have decied to cut my losses and buy a LS motor. I found one out of a 93 Integra with 60k miles for $350. The only problem is it's been sitting for about a year. The oil was drained before it was stored though. It has been sitting in an insolated shed. The seller told me that JDM motors often sit for several years before they're actually sold. Is this true? Do you guys think this motor would be good after sitting for so long? Any, and all help is very much appreciated!

Thanks,

Goldfingiz

I say wait. Better things will come, and it will be worth it, for now, get the freaking wastegate so you can boost a practical amount, then get a motor that will last.
