its 349. its got 140,000 on it, but i talked to the guy, and asked him what they do to it, check it etc, and he said the check the compression, and he can show me the results, etc. and he said he will start it up when i get there to pick it up so i know it doesnt knock or tick or anything, idk im satisfied. i had a lead on an entire care for 500, but then id have two engines to pull. this way its just one, then drop one in.

thanks again for the help.

See if you can talk him down on the price, since it does have high milage and you don't know when the water pump, idler pulley and timing belt have last been changed. I would use that as a bargaining tool. It's less than $100 for those parts, but I would get new ones just to make sure.
