Ummm. If that wasn't in SC, I'd be all over it. I wonder how much it would be to ship it.

OP, are you local to the seller?

Edit: What the hell. Just texted Matt.

Looks like the engine is in Mississippi.

Greyhound shipping may be a possibility?

Eh, op doesn't know the person at all. Someone local should get it. I'm reticent to do something like that.

Head off means you cant test compression. I would be weary about the motor.

Stealth97 04-20-2017 06:34 PM

Yep. It's also too cheap. Wouldn't touch it

Will need to do pick up only. Too much hassle to ship that.

Thanks for posting for me. Yes all the receipts are included. Less than 500 miles on motor. Bought a v8 rx7 so selling my Miata and pulled the motor to sell separate to get more money. Just moved to Tampa, but my husband and motor/car are still in MS. Needing to sell it before he moves down here with me.

I'm from Tampa, and shoot, right now I'm in Tampa. That engine would be easier to sell here, than in Mississippi.

if it doesn't sell before matt comes down, that and the Miata will be coming with us. Lol. It sucks bc we will have 4 more cars to relocate here. Shoot me or matt a text if you know of anyone interested. His number is listed. Mine is 7274808295

Kim Edwards 04-20-2017 08:54 PM

These are some of the receipts. I have a file folder full of them for it. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...7efa5a20dd.jpghttps://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...026e2ef18b.jpg

A good place to post would be @ Redirecting...

Welcome to Tampa!

Was the DNJ oil pump considered an oem equivalent?

I'd been texting matt, but I guess it's a no go due to the shipping issue and not having numbers. He also didn't specify how the motor was broken in except that it was nice and easy for the 500 miles of use it has seen.
And from my understanding, it wasn't built by a shop etc, just a local person that does this. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just that it's hard to confirm work etc that way. If I was local and could check things out in a running car, I'd be all over this.
