Not bad...not so sure on the price thou

If I read it correctly the pistons are -16cc dished and on a 4-valve thats some pretty low compression unless your going to boost it? I did not catch if you had a supercharger to go with? If I'm wrong completely ignore my statement, just lookin out for ya man.

Real nice which has alot of potential!!!

 

[atrainsgt]

Yes, I was going to boost the heck out of it. I have heard some opposition about this engine from people I trust so I think I'm going to look elsewhere or just build my own.

I would buy it if I had a way to get it to Kansas. It's in Tulsa Oklahoma right??

 

[atrainsgt]

Its in Oklahoma, I'm not exactly sure where. Want me to put you in contact with him?

I wish I had a way to transport it, I don't feel like shipping it unless I'd inspect it. It seems like a great deal, especially if you can deal him down.
