why would i wanna buy a motor... just saying they seem the be easy to come by lol. this one was free.... don't see that much. however i do find myself around some really good ppl these days. .. yepp phil its a 2.0 right now it has ble solid lifter, 280 cams, port work, 1mm over valves, ross pistons, the works. this is a fully built engine top to bottom.... i prob will put kelford cams in it. also toss the solid ble lifters.

that car had been beating on soo bad. the engine was not a stroker, like howie thought it was. engine was garbage, whoever built it should go shot themself.... transmission had a crank in the housing. i also liked how it was a awd car with tires sizes 3x 235/24/17 1x 225/45/17............. n the guy works at a tire place lol/ wow.

I sold that car with an 8.8:1 compression Ross/Eagle 2.0 setup. I had put around 28-30k on that engine before I sold it to Howie. I drove it back and forth from Orlando to Tampa for 2 years with no problems. The only problem I had was with the transmission. I put brand new Nitto 555's on those Evo wheels. I loved that car and it ran great. I did not however build that motor.

PM Sent Sorry been super busy. Apparently cell phone signals don't reach this end of the city. Sprint Fail.

So got the head all dressed up and looking good for the party lol. No but for real it came out looking nice.
Got the head bolted back on and going to degree the kelfords this weekend, Can't wait to hear this sick motor push some psi!!!

been working crazy hard over here. Its really a blessing to work on nice cars like this on a daily. have several builds in the works and needed to complete here with mine. I threw this whole setup in the car in about 24 hrs time and running. not bad huh.. i was able to take over the weekend off and do this. its been a long rd but this car has become everything I've ever wanted. engine runs really smooth. hopefully i can drag this on a dyno with some race gas and see what she can really do....
