A question about our 12a carb'd

I'm gonna buy a 85 off a guy, and its got 211000 km, how long do these tend to last, how long can i expect to get out of it, he has treated it real good, and never really let it sit for a long time, its also automatic if it makes a difference.

also in swapping a automatic engine to a 5 speed trans, i only have to exchange my old flywheel? or do i have to do more?

u need the front counter weight too.

 

Uh, how about a clutch pedal too?

 

Don't buy an automatic if you want a 5 speed.

 

well, i saw a 13b for sale that had 300,000 on it and ran fine... mine has 280,000k on it and doesnt smoke or anything. but it had better last me untill the end of the year. because by then i hope to have saven enough to rebuild, streetport and nitrous it!

 

i cant edit my post, but my car actually has 228,000kms on it.
