Looking at the 3 pics the middle picture shows straight down the bores looks like to me it has caps look in No4 cylinder and he's keeping them and the other 2 pics show the flange sitting in the air not flat on the ground


Reading this ^^^ and looking at the photos I sent the seller a message and he has corrected the listing. It DOES have the caps. I am considering it but are they worth $500?

With the caps and standard bore it is worth what he is asking any day of the week.
Just make sure the caps are stamped with the same number that is stamped on the water pump face of the block in the top right hand corner. ( matching caps for Block)
Go for it!!!

If they have the matching caps then $500 is a very reasonable price IMO

Edit: Whoops it's not $500 anymore. Sorry back to my 850 engine I go

I will not be suprised if this brings $650.00 to $750.00 I am not saying it will,
however These things are getting harder to get every day and I do not think they
are going to get cheaper

So what happened to the original auction??
I thought people had put bids on it above $500..
Why has the auction ended and the item relisted with a higher buy it now/reserve now???
Obviously the seller is on here and has figured out its a bit more valuable than they previously thought.... but i didnt think you could end an auction that had eligible bids on it..

Did i miss something???

From my recollection it received no bids at BIN $900 and BIN at$750 and the BIN at $500 is no option once a bid is made.

Yep you can end the auction anytime you want even with bids on it " thats how i bought my mini " , i put the only bid on it but it still had 4 days to go . i went and inspected it and told him im the bidder from ebay and said if he ends the auction now i would take it " which he did ".

I think they were there all the time.

I just dont understand how they can believe they dont have the caps when they are clearly there. Its like they didnt know what caps are . :?

Seems strange.
