Oops, just sold someone a junk engine...

I pulled my 327 out last spring, and sold it to some dude. He said he brought it to a shop to get new gaskets and whatever installed, and the guy said the pistons and rings were shot, and 2 pistons were rusted/seized into the block. Damn good thing I got rid of it--I was planning on re-using it myself!!!! Sucks to be him though...

P.S. I feel bad, but not bad enough to give money back!!!!

is this supposed to be funny!!! i think it sux that that guy got a raw deal. i would be pissed man if someone did that to me. i dont care what side your on, it doesnt put a grin on my face. also besides me, notice whatkind of replies you are getting except the junior member who obviously does not have any knowledge on how to use this board or thinks its funny that you did this.. oh well...make it nice for us, keep it tech dude. if you wanna start a flame goto nethirdgen.org. there is plenty of room for that **** over there. If you got a tech question, lets hear it. if you can help me with mine, lets hear it. otherwise stay outa the way and start dealing with other people with more integrity. dont be offended dude, just take a look at it.
