I bought a 1970 Duster with a "freshly built" 400. The motor was out of the car, never ran, never started. Pulled the oil pan, crank, valve and cylinder walls all look brand new. Today I went to the MOPAR spring fling, bought some goodies, came home to paint my engine and started wrenching. Took off the intake manifold and the valley pan and saw this. My friend is a diesel mechanic and said he'd take it back. My dad's friend builds hot rod motors as a hobby and said it should be fine. He also said someone might have done this intentionally to create more oil flow to the crank and timing chain. Anyways I paid 4k for the car rolling chassis and 2k for the motor (the way the ad was broken up he was offering everything for 6k or 4k just for the roller). I'm not crazy in wanting 2k back right?
