Budget D100 360 Suggestions

I tried talking him into a magnum, but as I said before, I found the 360 LA for practically free. Just traded a some beer I was able to get from a buddy of mine. I realize it may end up nickle and diming him for more than the cost of a used running magnum 5.9, but we won't know that for sure until he starts evaluating everything for machine work. Plus, he wanted something to tinker on and not something to just clean up and drop in the truck. This 360 I picked up suits his needs perfectly. Is it ideal? Probably not, but for him and what he wants out of it, it'll work well enough to put a smile on his face.
