BEWARE of doing business with 340bird71
I learned this from the Brady bunch
caveat emptor!
If the seller misrepresented the engine that is bad on him.
Looking at the photos from the sale thread he misrepresented by saying "freshly rebuilt"
For your friend to not FULLY inspect the engine is 110% on him.
And from the photos I would not have driven 600 miles to look at the engine, the pass side head intake mating surface is all rusted and the lifters all up in the air, no balancer, or front cover.
No way in hell I'm buying that.
Sure it sucks to drive 1200 miles and come home empty handed but it is even worse to come home with a boat anchor and no cash and 1200 miles.
NEVER TAKE ANYONE'S WORD ON THE QUALITY OF A PRODUCT YOU ARE LOOKING TO BUY.
