No Offence But Either The Kid you bought the GTA from was On glue or He did a really good job of ripping you off by pulling the 350ci Engine and selling it then putting a 2.8L in and selling it to you. I think you Got hosed!!!
Hopefully at least it has a good body on it and some nice rims
and in time you can buy a MONSTER engine for it!!!
Good Luck and Don't Trust Kids!!!

i dont know if a 350 does much good on harlem since you can only move 2 mph in between the intervals of stoplights. i avoid it like the plague, but ill be on lookout for the blue 90
