List your full location please.

Also, if you'd sell just the air cleaner lid off it, I'd be interested.

Thanks

Honestly, I'd be glad to list my full location.. But for safety reasons, and for the sake of not having somebody come down and steal the engine.. I'm gonna keep that confidential, but for those who are seriously interested, I suggest you call or email me and then I'll give my address..

I am located on Long Island though.. if that helps for now..


As far as the air cleaner, you need just the lid?. or the whole assembly??

The rules are the rules, but Long Island works for now.  (BTW...posting up a phone # is pretty much the same as giving your address, esp if it's a land-line.) So...

Just the lid.

I am from Garden City.. the engine, on the other hand, is not in or near my house... the engine is in Nassau county, if you call, you will be informed with all you need to know..


The number is a business line to my father's business, which is a Mobil station, and he is the person to speak to for information. 


The email, is MY email address.. but I highly suggest that you CALL......

cool, post the carfax report of proof for the mileage and blot out the vin for your security,  that would help it sell.

a CFI 302 wont bring that much unless someone really wants it.  It does however have the second largest throttle body offered in CFI, second to the earlier HO.

The CFI intake is junk to me honestly, but that doesn't make this engine junk either.. It's a 302, E7TE headed motor.. the intake can be changed to anything anybody wants.. heads, internals.. everything...

I just want to sell the motor: 1) because I don't need it, 2) it will help put at least a small sum into our project car...


the carfax is helpful and I'll probably do that, I have pictures of when the engine was in the car but I should've taken a picture of the Odometer... I'm pretty sure that the last time I read the Odometer, it  said something like 32,400 miles precisely...  it ran and drove perfectly well!



If anybody is interested, or if you know anybody who is, please refer to the contact information above. Arrangements can be set up so that you, or anybody can come see the engine!

Rule #4 of the marketplace...
# When selling any item, you MUST include your location (city, state/province). Posting something for sale does not do you any good if nobody knows where to find it! There have been complaints about this, so it will be enforced from here on out. If you find your ad replaced with the words "RULE #4" you'll know why.

Like I said before, I dont want anybody coming down and STEALING my engine.. it HAS happened in the past and it won't happen again...


My location, is Garden City, NY..  My father's business is in Merrick, NY.. We will have the engine at the station if somebody wishes to see it.. The motor, however, is ON LONG ISLAND, if it matters that much to know where it is..  I wouldn't be selling an engine that is in another state or miles and miles away from where I live.. common sense to me..



I will say it again..

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED... PLEASE, call or email... I refuse to discuss location any further as this is thread is starting to become improper!

When the motor is sold, I will state that it is sold!

Our engine isn't 40,000 miles, although close.. and plus we know exactly how the engine was running... there is no reason for us to be dishonest about it, or provide false advertising.. not that I'm saying that the information on the add that you saw was false...


The engine that we're selling also comes with the A/C compressor and power steering pump still attached and in proper working order.


The engine is still $500 negotiable.. Shipping arrangements can be made!

The quoted text was all that was needed in your location box in your profile.  After that you could have posted the ad in the original post without issue.  Not tryin' to bust yer chops -- just sayin....

Good luck with the sale :)

Please forgive me for my attitude, I didn't mean to bite anybody's head off. This isn't my typical attitude and you can tell that it's not from the way I respond in my swap thread, but I just want to do things right and don't want to seem unprofessional when selling an item.....guess I blew that.

But honestly, thank you for letting me know about my location in my profile, if only I knew better...and sooner.. You didn't bust my chops, I just didn't understand...I guess I'll repost the ad

Can this thread be removed since I made another ad for the engine?
