Re: Having a Hard Time finding a 401

["lumina333" <lumina3@xxxx>]

I realize that I can't find a perfectly running engine in a junkyard; 
hence the name "junk" or "salvage". Otherwise I'd call Jasper...I 
don't care if it is running, as long as the block is good, I can 
always tear it down and rebuild it. 
It just seemed alot to pay for an engine that has ????? mileage on it 
already, may have problems, and require a rebuild anyway.
You disagree? What say you BAG folks? I should jump on it or pass?

other motor hell nowadays finding any decent V8 is hard i found a 302 
out of a 73 F100 fro my 77 F100 and DOH! the comp test read 0 so

local junkyards and if you do you'd certainly pay out the ass for 
it!!!buy the 401 asap you def.lucked out bigtime!!
