If it is as claimed, that is a good value.

this should serve as testament to those trying to sell their cars and want to get back every penny they spent on mods.

I would be nervous about sending money to a private seller for an unseen product. Why not find a repair shop that's local to him, who takes credit cards and ask the owner to go there, snap a picture and give the motor a quick listen and report back. That would be a $100 insurance policy to me.

the dude is a moderator on 2 other f-body forums...he's sold 105 things including 30 motors in the last 3 years...pretty sure he's legit, lol

he was hoping to have a video of it running for me today so hopefully we will be able to see it soon guys!

Ya know whammer, I'm slightly disappointed in this whole situation...had you just gone with the cam swap, our cars would be pretty evenly matched in the quarter on paper! :P lol

Very nice engine you've got coming. I wanna see a dyno graph!

i will try to post it up on here, however i don't have a scanner so it might have to be a pic, lol.

lame part is that i can't really go to the track. my car is a convertible so if i run all out with this engine, i will get kicked out of the track, lol. oh well, it will still be a hell of a good time!

good luck with the new motor whammer hope you can get it soon and get it put in so we can see how you like it and i would imagine your t56 could handle it including they put them in vettes and vipers
