if you arent lying for attention whoring purposes, you have just been struck by the happy CARma ray. from now to the near not so distant future... I would avoid walking near tall objects before/during/after inclement weather call me supersticious but these kinda things come in waves... like all things... +/zero/-/zero/+... and so on...

I dont buy it. if anything, the internals of the motor were gutted before it went for sale at $500. You can get a set of ITR cams and a R shiftknob for $500 bucks whole motor? shoot... I'll give you $.25 for it right now.

Good, just make sure the guy isn't shady, the engine has good compression, and there are no cracks in the head or block... I mean, I paid 2000 cdn for my B16A swap, so the C5 you're mentioning sounds ridiculously cheap.
