SKYMANGS:When shawn brought me this TPI motor, it was missing the push rods, lifters, guide plates, and retaining bracket. I quickly discovered that it was cheaper to buy a whole core engine than to buy the parts individually. This is the doner motor, i was told it has a rod knock. $150, with a complete enact valve train. Second pic is transplanted into the TPI motor.
