    Come on $500 and you got the use of it how many hours did you put on it? and if it's a good rebuildable motor, sounds good if your happy with it. And more pics of the motor.

ID:	425945The ridge on the cylinder really doesn’t feel to bad at all. Top ring is free bottom ring is stuck. The rust in the cylinders is from me washing it with degreaser
