It is very selfish of the block owner and yourself to come to this site and expect to hopefully sell a motor north of 40K but too cheap to support a site for a mere $30. And yes you are trying to sell it here. Btw there are plenty of Buick guys on this site.

I agree with COPO Cartel. BUT if the guy can get $20K for this engine, he's doing good in my books as the new "owner" will surely need to freshen it up.

Tell you what, I'll meet you guys halfway. If the engine sells to someone here I'll personally donate $100 to the site.

I plan on telling him that if someone offers $20k to take it. There's a rebuilt COPO race engine listed on eBay for $50k so I think that's where he came up with the starting price. He knows it's not worth that much and as I said he will most certainly accept much less but first it takes someone who's in need and serious before he'll start negotiating down.

I appreciate all of the comments and concerns as they are warranted. But I'm not interested in doing anything deceitful or malicious so I'm fine with where I stand.
