Cheap Drop In Engine

[TLBREWER]

Any of you southern boys need a refurbed drop in engine cheap. I wouldn't count on it for a performance builder, but a good "get me by" motor.

Anybody have the heart to tell this guy it's not a powerstroke and he needs to discount that price by about 75% if he wants to sell it?

De De DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Not to mention he can't spell worth a crap!

I DID drop him a line bluntly pointing out to him what he has, and he responded with some barely intelligable gibberish with a phone # to discuss a 'sale'. Some people...

"Let's get 3 cans of machinery grey spray paint and call it rebuilt".

They even spray painted over the oil fill cap. If they took that little care with the paint, how little care did they take in the internal work that you'll never see?

My thinking exactly! Might be able to get a few months out of it.

He probably had to paint over the water pump and oil cooler leaks so nobody would see them

I was trying very hard to remain politically correct as not to offend anyone. I'm glad I didn't speak to him as Shane did. ...

Mr. Spray Paint also had a complete ATS turbo on Ebay that he ended after a day. I emailed him to ask why he ended it since I had bids on it, and his response was that he was moving it around and dropped it and the turbo 'cracked like an egg'. He probably sold it outside auction but anybody who cops to carelessly shattering turbos, truthfully or not, probably shouldn't be rebuilding any engines. At least none that I'd use.
Tom, I imagine that if I had spoken to the poor 'misspeller' in person, I would have been forced to resort to hand gestures.

Yet this is the guy who says that the only way he will offer a warranty is if HE installs it??? well heck- sign me up!

My idea of hell would probably be watching that guy torque head bolts on a fresh motor that I was paying for.

 

[Russ]

I can't believe it has 11 bids on it.

 

[hoodshauler]

Hell it is in Georgia and only about an hour away. Johnathan theres another motor for you. I will spend the money to fix mine as opposed to getting that thing.
