My $400 RE buy...... WTF>?!?!

So i just a bought a COSMO RE motor for $400 ......


best part is that it still Runs, has pretty much everything on it still.

the only down side is that it coughed up some smoke, on a cold start once, when it was in a FD.


we started it one more time before i bought it, didnt really smoke.

and it still has compressioN!!!

soo basically i lucked out on a Sick *** motor..


i still plan to rebuild it for my GTUs build...

all i can say is **** YEA!!
