Re: Wiw 283

I could be interested once you come on a price.So...let me come up with a low-ball number...
I`ll let other give input since I`m expressed an interest.Are you pricing to buy or sell?I need to build a truck for my son and was considering a lil`283.
It`s a bit funny selling a good rebuilt motor independantly.No garauntee,can`t prove much,it`s a bit of a crap shoot based on seller`s honesty or on how honest whoever he got it from was.Selling a motor claimed to be rebuilt helps a vehicle sale.But,once it`s out,unless you`re a rebuilder/machinist or have a recipt and a way to show how much use it`s had...
I know you know this stuff.I`m just painting the picture.I figure used smallblocks are good for about $300 max.Rebuilt with some low(claimed)mileage would go for $500 or more complete.I can have a motor built by a guy I trust starting at about double that and know it`s fresh.
