This engine was featured here a few years back when it was being resuscitated by the present(?) owners. Looks pretty...expensive. |

I don't expect that anyone on this forum would consider the asking price anything close to the reasonable value. We saw this engine at Mystic. Ran very poorly. Would require a total rebuild to be desired. And certainly at a lot lower price. I wouldn't normally post this kind of response, but I don't want anyone to be unaware of what is being promoted. Just know what you are getting. |
