    Does anyone local to SoCal have a bad motor out of the car they want to sell? As long as there are no holes in it or cracks, ill take it!

    I know a guy with a motor that has a bad head gasket. How much are you willing to pay for a bad motor? I'll pass on the word

    So far, I have one at $200 but will have to do some driving to get it. If I can pickup tomorrow... it's a done deal!

    I asked him and he discarded the motor already. He said no takers on Craig’s after a few months, he just gave it to a recycler
