The rust is only on the heat shields and exhuast parts that will be tossed any how. Is it bad that it came from canada. I live so close here in MI.

that motor sure looks like it sat outside for a while.... a long while. the only way to get that oxidation on the intake manifold and that kind of rust on the heatshields takes some weathering.:doh:

you're gonna need to take the motor down completely..clean everything extensively...replace all gaskets and seals...possibly pullies as well...

and yeah..based on the appearence i'd say it was left uncovered on the boat over here...nothing like salt water air..ahhh...lol..but seriously...do an overhaul before even thinking of putting it in a car...

and next time..POST PICS FIRST..:p..then buy..

Thanks for the advice...I will definately take her apart change the seals and gaskets as mentiond. Also whats the best place to buy ECu and wiring harness? Heavy Throttle? I know they are a great dealer as mentiond in a few old threads but they are expensive...but if you want it done right I guess you get what you pay for. Thanks agian.

Poor oil pan....:cry: :cry: The only thing that looks clean is the top part that says "TURBO INTERCOOLER". I swear i think companies just clean the hell outta that part because it catches the eye the most. And i mean, cmon guys, we all kno that if its shiny, its gold as far as performance goes, lol.;)

Let's hope they ship on time...He had reputable feedback and he supposably ships 5-7days to the door when recieving the check. I realize its dirty as Sheit but I hopefully can make her shine.
