The answers give you a low ball price.

200 Hours for a carb means new valve spring at a minimum.

The salt will scare alot of people, as they will think the worst.

My opinion 4000-5000 with exhaust.

When I did mine at 200 hours, they needed head gaskets in addition to the valve spring jo. They only had a thread left between a few cylinders. While its apart, new lifters, cometic gaskets etc. The intake also takes a beating from the salt, mine needed some touch up. Teague also writes about the valve seats needing attention. They will take some money to make right.
