I'm looking for the airbox and it's mount if you still have it.

Sorry, it had a Terry Houston DP when it was in the TTA but I sold it a few years ago.

When I bought the car from John Galena years ago it didn't have the factory air box. I don't know where that ended up.

Stock downpipe, flex pipe and cat as well as the transmission crossmember and stock turbo were also sold a couple years ago.

I have been responding to multiple Pm's on this car when I get the chance. I am not in a hurry to sell anything. Offers are always welcome but at this point I will be very firm on what I am willing to take. If you feel I am asking too much, so be it. I will stop responding and hold onto it. This has been the one car I have had for 20 years, another 5, 10 or more years won't bother me one bit. It will just get passed down to my kid.

Car is going to be sold locally. I am in negotiations with someone off of this site... As of right now sale is pending.
8k for a engine is a lot. Way way way to much. You will keep it for sure

It's not just an engine though....it's a engine plus trans plus turbo plus converter. An engine with work too. If you think that's way way way to(o) much you should probably be looking at a different car.
I see. The way it was said made it seem that the engine was 8k only.
I would have said it like this:
Engine price:
Transmission price:
Engine and transmission together:
A built transmission is about 3k and a nice ball bearing turbo is about 1800. That's what I paid. So yeah I can see that. As long as there's receipts to back up all the work it's a good price. If not it'll be difficult to sell.
Anyone can clean up some parts and call them rebuilt.
There is a engine and trans with turbocharger all still assembled for sale on Craigslist. Asking price $2500. But no said work was done on it.

This is just whats listed. We dont know whats been done to heads, intake, TB, rockers, etc
The price is not bad at all.

Yes, you are right. I didn't explain that like I should have . 8k was for the whole car, not just the motor and trans. If I sold just the roller car I would probably be in the $2,500 range. It is a high milage car (160+) but is completely Rust free and like I posted before, I have had this thing since 98 and have a lot of money and time invested in it. I could sell the roller to the Mazda croud in a second.

I think so, just waiting for the payment. I kept it off-line.
