You bring an open trailer to the track and have the seller bring the car to the track and make a pass. If it runs as they say, then load it up on your trailer near the return road after the ET shack. If it doesn't run as advertised, then drive away.

Pretty good advice right there ..

I tried to do this in 1994, but it rained and I was 500 miles from home …..

or you could just build your own ( which you're apparently going to wind up doing anyway) and then you only have yourself to blame!

This is exactly why when deciding to run stock did not take the advice: "buying an existing stocker is lower cost". It may or may not depending on the seller.

If it's not too late, offset sleeve a 350 block, will help the intake flow even if the flow bench says it didn't.
