Can he tell you what exactly went wrong with the motor? Maybe I can help you shed some light into whether if it's worth you taking a plunge on it.
i'd appreciate that dude, I'll text the guy in the morning

Also, most products from SURE are garbage, especially their mounts. Stay away.

The VVT fix is like 1.4-2k from the dealership. Do a compression test as well.
Thanks for the good advice. Seller said he has receipts for clutch assembly, I'm hoping that it solved that issue. Seller also mentioned noise in the morning, I'm thinking it might be VVT rip. Thoughts on the deal? I feel like if seller did all the work, it should be listed in ad. Been dreaming for a speed 6 tho
