*IF* I were selling this, would anybody be interested?

I'm just trying to see if there's any demand out there. I *might* be selling this stuff.

Would anybody be interested in buying a disassembled '95 3.4L complete minus stock valve covers and all accessories. In addition to this, I have Fiero valve covers and a 3.4L Master Engine Rebuilt kit.

The kit includes .030 over pistons, EVERY gasket, freeze plugs that didn't come with the kit but I have them anyways, NO cam or lifters (i deleted them to buy the crane cam which i never did), rings, bearings, and everything else you need.

The engine block needs to be bored .030 over to accomodate the oversize pistons. I had machine shop estimates of about $250-400 to bore/hone the cylinders, check line bore, and check the con rods.

The engine kit cost me $450+. I'd be looking to make anywhere from $500-600 for everything. Practically a free engine that needs a rebuild. Actually the engine didn't NEED a full rebuild but I wanted to get 200,000 miles out of it so I figured I'd do it right the first time.

EDIT: In case this gets locked, email me at dan90rs@hotmail.com

I'd give you $200 for the used block and crank- that's all I would be interested in. Don't want the other parts, don't even want the crank bearings.

I haven't made up my mind yet. Just testing the waters right now. I'm getting sick of my car and I don't feel like doing all this stuff anymore. I want to pick up a 2nd car as well....I'd prolly end up getting raped on registration though.

My registration fee last year was $42. Smog check every other year is $39.95. Custom personalized plate fee was aprox $40? (1st fee, then $15 per year there after). Not too bad at all for Calif.
