This engine seems cheap for a 8.1L v8?
« on: 14 August 2009, 17:51:43 »

I've been watching it on ebay for past few days, however I did expect it to go for more than that.

2000 miles on a 2000/2001 lump.   Maybe to many caustios people out there not wanting to buy off a member with a rating of 2.

Change of reason didnt sound too convincing either.  Block could have had a hairline line crack.  I think I would have given it a miss to be honest.

Sounded about the right price considering it was just the bare engine, there's still s*itloads more to spend before that's running at full potential.
