Dealing with this in a legal manner is not going to happen. The reason is it was used on both sides and yeah he said it was this but at the time the transaction took place you had rights to inspect it and you took the option not to. I only question the fact the balancer and flywheel should have been a dead giveaway if it was a 383 / 350 block Ect.
What this guy did was wrong 100% and is not a man of his word. I would never deal with someone I did not know without seeing it with my own eyes.
I am a fraud investigator by day... wish I had better news.
The one and only option you have is to sue in small claims court and hope to win a judgement against him. This was it cost you $50-$100.00 to file and the best part no attorney on either side.

As far as the balancer(didn't have a flywheel on it),he said steel crank,which usually means internal balance,even on a 400 type crank.
I've decided to let it rest anyway.Trust me,the engine is gonna make an EXCELLENT conversation piece in the weeks to come. :lol:
And as promised,his RJ name-critty396ss.May as well add it to the running list of deadbeat scammers,but please add a side note that he"is sorry that I'm not happy". :roll:
Thanks guys,
Glen

His B/S was just a selling line to get a trade for something of more value.
I hope he owns up dude but I'm betting he won't.
Just for the record -200,000 miles and rear main leaks don't go together, I have over 255,000 on my 95 suburban. It does use a little between oil changes (about a quart) but it has no leaks, its all about the maintenance.
Thought I'd throw that in there just for the hell of it.

Well,he said it leaked a quart onto his trailer during the 2 to 2 1/2 hour trip back home,which is all but impossible.A small leak will pool and run and look like it's a huge amount.If it leaked while sitting on the trailer,it definately didn't leak through the rear main,unless he left it running the whole time,the rear main needs oil pressure applied to it to leak,generally speaking.Really,the whole point of the matter is,I didn't tell him the Blazer did or did not use a little oil.He didn't ask,and I honestly didn't give it a thought,as that's exactly what it did-it used a LITTLE oil,and has 200K miles,what's the problem?I MIGHT have put 3 quarts of oil in the Blazer in the approximately 3 months I drove it.I'm guessing it leaked a small amount onto his trailer,he saw it and got mad and blew it all out of proportion,or just thought it looked like a lot more than it really was.Either way,he's still a damn liar!!
