The Marlboro one is Mars has less than 1000 miles on it, the guy also has a 89 TTA with under 1000 miles on it, he takes both out to the wexford show. Some high dollar american muscle. The Marlboro with that low mileage is above $100k, and the TTA is probably around $60k

Heres a marlboro for sale, 3,200 miles, asking $70k

Just got the low down from a Syclone race builder. He said that the crate vortec in it wont handle more than 5 pounds of boost, and that i’d need to replace the pistons, rods, and main caps to be able to run at optimum level.

Opinions?

as the drama unfolds, i am trying to fly back out to minnesota this friday and drive it back. I was able to track down the 2nd owner, (previous to current), whom is the one who built the motor, i am getting a name and number, so that i can verify if the truck need engine work to hold the stock 15psi. If not, i’m gonna need a set of Syclone pistons, rods, and main caps.

Hopefully it wont come to that. hopefully it was built right, and just needs the air/fuel tweeked.

Or else it’ll be a lot of time/money over a low mileage basket-case truck
