Thats one expensive boat ancker. Keep in mind guys it's an 86 motor, crappy block, crappy crank, and I'm sure has the crappy 86 rods. I have a motor like that I'll be throwing away soon. I guess it'd be OK for a stock car, or maybe a couple bolt-ons, but if someone wants to crank it up and make some decent HP(which most of us TD guys do), that motor's a poor starting point.

Well the block is dated late 86' so it is for an 87' vehicle most likely...this means there's a possibility of it being a T2 engine........did anybody actually run the numbers to see?

Read about him before bidding.

I did not click on the link and as I was reading this post and scrolling through I'm thinking in the back of my head, ( I bet its that fu*ker Cruz) and then see TrboVan's post. Too funny.
Yeah watch out for this guy, I emailed him and he still doesn't seem to get it becuase he actually reply'd. This is the 4 time he has posted that auction.
