"Thats the joy of a front cut - you can test them out before purchase! "
This is true,
however after my engine overheated some months back, it ran perfectly well for 6months, then it shat itself (gasket was obviously deteriorating gradually).
How can u tell if the same has / has not happened to an engine in a front cut.....? i cannot afford 6 months of fun for $4500. i am requiring a reliable engine from the get go.
there will still obviously be factors (ie its NA now, can it handle a turbo? etc) but i know the engines history (receipts for the car dating back to 1992).
With the front cut i really have very little idea.
still risky either way.
