Maybee you should keep the 351 :)
Not sure what the guy ~~~~ed up when doing this... Probably the MAF since he says its a strange setup. Its not the IMRCs.

yeah, i've already informed him that i'll be keeping my car. I dont want or need another project. I'll keep my good realiable car, even if it is slow... I think he may have been out to screw me from the beginning.

Hehe, only reason you're not making more power to start with is because of your compression :)

Please dude, thats a steal even if he doesnt have it running. The parts alone for that are waaaaaaay worth it. I promise it's something stupid he forgot to do correctly. I bet in one weekend with the guys together working on that we could have it doing 13's. If anyone gets screwed on that deal it'd be him, not you.

Joel's right about the parts alone (the transmission, converter and gears) being worth the trade... but the DOHC swap isn't as difficult as people make it. Swap it in, convert YOUR wiring to connect to it, have tune made with the stock DOHC parameters, done.
If its screwed up as bad as it sounds (IDK How) I wouldn't want to have to tow it back to MO after it blows up half way, and then swap in a new motor.

If it wasn't running right, I'd just trailer it the whole way and not risk any damage. Atleast until I knew what was wrong with it.

I'm not gonna trade my car for one that may or may not be drivable, if i had money to offer him, it'd be different, but i just cant justify trading my car off (i have well over 100 hours in it) for his now that i know it has "problems"
Sry to dissapoint some of you, but i assure you, i'm the most dissappointed

If he gets a Super Coupe, he'll end up with just as many issues as that DOHC has at the moment. Super Coupes can be picky unless you leave them bone stock.

I can't tell you how truly sorry I am.... Where should I send the flowers.
