I'm picking up an engine for my new fc project. Anyways do you think it'll work? It has almost perfect compression but other than that we're not sure if ti works or not cause the guys hasnt tried. If it has perfect compression that means it doesnt need a rebuild for the most part right?

flip a coin. it may have compression but have a broken coolant seal. like my jspecs did https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

It can have all the compression in the world and still be a junk engine.. but having good compression usually means that it will be a cheap overhaul because you'll probably be able to reuse the rotor housings... Buying any used engine is hit or miss, you never know how it was treated or how worn out it really is until you take it apart...

Ok, thanks for the help guys, i guess all i can do now is pray and see if my cheap 350 shell devours the rest of my wallet.
