      I doubt that old unit is still making that. Now if you wanted to update the head and newer F.I. and newer Motronic 1.3 yes it would be a decent lump.

      I'm not saying they are junk, just you have no real knowledge of it's history and if you spend $450 and then need to rebuild it plus make engine mounts for it and exhaust. This project will devoir your budget.

          Basically look at the side of the block under the intake, and see if it has a 3.5, 3.3 or something else stamped. If 3.5 then it's worth it, if not don't bother.

                Oh, my bad I thought they had said they wouldn't be shipping them after two sets got lost.

                    oh really?

                    I got my mounts from him almost 2 summers ago with no problems. I sold them to some guy along with the rest of the m30 kit to some guy in Tenn.
