Looking For An Alloy CSX4000? Here Ya Go

[madmaxx]

Once again I am not a professional car appraisel or certified mechanic. My opinion is for entertainment purposes only. I am not bidding on this car. I looked at the car yesterday and for all I know it is fully polished today and in pristine condition.

FE's have a reputation for leaking, so that, in it of itself, shouldn't be a deal breaker for someone out there. Is the block an aluminum CSX block? If so, the early CSX blocks did have problems, which by the drilling of a hole, can be repaired.

First hand knowledge is always better than armchair quarterbacking from CA. That's for sure. Of course, maybe you're "sandbagging" everyone that you can buy it cheaper. (just kidding around).

It did not appear to be an aluminium block, once again I am not a professional car person or mechanic. I am not buying or bidding on the car, I made an offer yesterday and it was rejected. I know the cash in my bank account will not loose value except for inflation, LOL!!! I am cheap and only buy things I can make money on so my opinion probably is out of line on value.
