think about selling a short or long block that i got, its got- a X-cam and lifters,speed pro pistons,aftermarket rods(not sure brand). i got it in a mustang that i bought drove it around the block a couple of times to make sure it ran good and it did,only proble had was that it leak oil out from back of block.when pulled motor it was the cam freeze plug so i replaced it.it had GT40p heads wit rr,that i will sell if u want it as long block (which would b good cause was already on this setup). well had plans 2 put TFTW heads wit 1.7s and s/c on it so i put new rod and main cap bearings in 4 xtra insurance but the old ones still looked good well i went to do a ptv check and nope wont work so pretty much made me mad and got me here 2 sale it. the guy i got the car from said the motor was a new all the stuff looks like very little use the heads look like they were even bought new. Make offer not 2 sure what to let it go 4 (but got a idea) so let me know. Sorry for the long story but hey everybody wants info on stuff. (well i gave it LOL)
