the fact that the seller ended the sale early at the highest bidders price and sold for that bet it was a bit more than that outside of ebay though

I'm no expert on that engine but are 3 of the 4 pictures a non turbo engine? the one with the black spark plug cover looks right but not the others

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Probably, I'd say 95% of the LET/LEH engines on ebay are out of stolen cars.

On another note, you now have an Astra Rob?

"The seller ended this listing early to sell to the high bidder(s) at current bid price"
