          ^^^ Nice!! I paid $250 to a member here (who no longer seems to be around...?) because it was supposed to be ready to roll. When I got it home and started to inspect it closely, bolts were stripped and broken, seals were installed crooked, gaskets were torn, number 2 cylinder had a wrong injector and the top ring was cracked, and the exhaust valve had been overheated... And the person it was purchased from was supposedly a "professional mechanic"! I guess that just means someone paid him for his butchery!
