My 1st instinct is not weather or not the engine is worth it but the fact the seller only has 8 feedbacks is already at a 90% feedback rating.

Just my own personal feelings I don't buy anything from an online auction where the seller is below 97 to 98% depending on how many feedbacks they have.

Take a look at the rossi auctions. I have spoken with him several times and he has gone out of his way to find a custom balancer on mine. I will post when I get the engine next week to confirm that all is well.

Thanks guys. Well I just got the my 84 in Octobre as a trade. So I have no idea where the ex owner found this kit. Also, I cant really ask him anything. He's not happy with the trade and was harassing me until I stopped returning his calls
