They have around 240 hrs on them and have never been freshened. Is there anything that I need to know about these engines in general? I will do a compression test before purchase, but it will be difficult to do a leakdown as it is sitting on a lift miles away from a good source of compressed air.
I have looked up the specs on the new Teague 825 and it says 509CI with a 3.3L whipple. Would this be accurate for these older 800's? What about the drives, are they plenty good enough for the 800's? Thanks

Yes, the 40 at LOTO. I think that the superchargers have "Whipple" cast into the tops.

Thanks for the advice. I called Teague today and they treated me like family. Answered every question and BS'd for half an hour. Made an offer, will see what happens.
