Re: Should i buy this car with a bad engine?

skip it. there are hundreds of V6 f-bodies for sale, that have good engines

Yup, that's what im doing. That one in philly with 76k for $2500 is an amazing deal. Im going to call about that car.

Also since i have a thread now, is the y87 option on the door jamb sticker?

oh and as far as swapping a different motor...when i had mine rebuilt they hired out someone to swap it out and back in and only charged like a grand....so look around and you may find someone who has done it a few times and wont charge much

Your question is like asking us, "hey should I marry I girl who is 19 and married 3 times
and has the clap and herpes if she is willing to marry me?"

i think his question was a little more justified than that... lol

throw out the previous marriages and STD's and turn her into a fatty and maybe it'd apply... b/c then she (like the car) might be a catch, but would she be worth it... diet and exercise are alotta work (like swapping an engine)... lol

you WILL run into some other sort of problem and it will prolly cost you $4500-$5000 when everything is said and done.

if u want a V8...just buy it now.
