Re: Junkyard Jimmy Super Low Buck Build Thread

I hate it when someone says, 'ya it ran great when it was pulled' Then you get it home and it turns out that it tossed a rod bearing. If you can't hear it run I would be skeptical. My gut feel is to stick your money into the 350. One you will know exactly what your getting and two the misc parts, brackets etc. can be located easily.

Sorry to see the 400 didn't work out. That sure looks crusty.
