I have to say, given that I have just spent close to $2k to build a mildly tuned J motor with “used” pistons and cams I think that is a bargain

The pistons, valves, and cams are used but the rings are new. The engine has zero hours on it, and has never been started.

The head has been skimmed and the ports opened up then flow checked by a guy who knows drag heads.

It requires C16 racing gas to start it. It has as much compression as my alcohol engine and I believe alcohol is around 130 Octane.
Locally C14 is $300 for a 5 gallon drum, so you really need to anticipate if you want to start and tune one of these setups.
For the same size drum M1 Methanol is about 1/2 that price.
