The motor was in my 72 VC. I have owned the car abouit 4 years, it was running great. The only reason I took it out was to put in a 455. I do not know if it has been worked on or not? I took the valve covers off, and looked like some new rockers have been replaced. The car has about 38000, so I think 138000, and as good as it was running, I think I may have been worked on? It did not smoke or run bad. If a person need a engine, and did not have money to spend on a rebuild, I would have no problem putting it in as is. I would change the pan gasket, and front timming cover seal brfoe installing. I'm asking $325.
