pair of 500hp's for sale
 
I have a pair of 500hp's from a 96 Formula. They are Gen V motors, roller lifter, roller rocker complete with carbs, flywheels, and distributors. Less exhaust manifolds, fuel pumps, and pulleys. I am upgrading to 540's. They are used, with about 200 hours and run good. I would like to get $5200 for the pair, plus the ride.
I can't post pictures here, but if you PM me with an email address, I can send some pics to you.
Thanks
Doc

Were you there with cash in hand?! Probably not so let him sell (or trade) to the first one that has cash or trade!!!

Keep in mind "sold locally" could be one and the same as "traded to engine builder" assuming he's using a local builder. Not surprised his builder jumped on these, $5k was a good price.

he told me that if the guy didn,t pay by monday they were mine on tuesday,yes i have cash in hand and wanted to pick them up.if he wasent going to sell them to a oso member,then why post them forsale.when he posted,he made no mention of a pending sale.another words,why post item forsale if it is allready sold?

i agree 5000. was a good price,that is why i jumped on it sight unseen.also,if he traded them to a local engine builder,why did he post them forsale on oso.he claimed he had 540s being built and no longer needed the hp500s.he never made mention of trading them to the engine builder till after i said i wanted them,the whole thing stinks of :bsflag:

I don't need to defend my actions, but.........
When I told by builder I listed them for $5200, he offered me $6500 off the cost of the 540's. He said he would provide it in the form of a new quote, which was in my email this morning. what would you do.
Sorry if you think it is BS.

what would you do.i for one would not have said i had a pending deal[lie number one]nor would i have said,i sold them locally[lie number 2].i would have said in a pm to mr tkach,that someone offered me more money.so the fact is that you reniged on our deal,you are not a man of your word.instead of telling the truth,you chose to try and lie to me.your right,you don,t have to defend your actions,you just have to live with them,good luck with your new 540s.in the future you may want to think twice before you lie on this site,allthough at this point it really cant harm your reputation,you allready took care of that.as i said,you are full of:bsflag:

Keep your engine builder happy. You'll probably get some extras out of the deal also. If you look back I was probably your first PM (4/3/10 - 8:42 PM) regarding the interest/purchase of your engines. So all can assume I bought them as I said I would. I can understand Mike being a little upset however sometimes things just don't work out. Sometimes for a reason. Hell, maybe your builder will find some surprises when he pulls the pans. Could end up saving you a lot of grief down the road.
