318 rebuilt Should i buy?

I agree! New chain, new pistons or cleaned old pistons with NO ridge, MIGHT be a good deal! Hard to tell tho.

I was also thinking about not blocking the timing chain oil hole with a camshaft thrust plate bolt, or missing an oiling tab or oil slinger, and most importantly the oil galley plugs behind the camshaft thrust plate. It's a mistake that I see many times on engines that other people put together.... :banghead:
