what do you suggest for that ? how would you consider being "without a doubt cheated" ? heads are def not fresh gues the pan has to be pulled now

Major bummer for buyer. I know hes trying to build on a budget & wasnt expecting this....
Unfortunately if seller wont cooperate theres not too many options. Its a cheapo motor so getting a lawyer will just make the hole deeper, cant do small claims due to the distance.

Take it across the chin & blacken the sellers eye in return with a name.

Already said ill hook up buyer with all my old stuff when hes building.

Im not a mechanic so i would have to ask others and go on their word about what i got. Also, did he get a smokin deal? Ie a fair price for a 330 hp motor? How was it advertised(meaning where did he get the info as to it being fresh)? HWat was meant by fresh and how was that spelled out?

Im just asking these questions becasue once you call him out others may hammer you if answers cant be provided.

Paid $1800 for a long block
Description was more specific over the phone. But the swap shop thread says "fresh 0 hours"

seller has an ironic signature:

"Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none"
