    3G Accord V12 motor????

    I don't know if I'm the first to pick this out: I wasn't aware that Honda made a V12 option for the 88 Accord. Yes of course I realize what's pictured, but their mistake is my laugh. And sure, they probably meant 12 valves.

    I think the seller meant 12V. Meaning 12 valves. Not 12 cylinders.

    That is crazy! First he says v12, and then if you look he wants $750 for a used engine that you cant even see or hear run! I've seen big block chevys around here for the same price and you could hear and see them run.

    I like the way they it's "still in the crate". Makes it sound like a new engine but it looks pretty well used to me.

    Is it just my imagination or does Kalimari kinda look like deep fried assholes?

    I don't get people.

    If you actually expect to sell something, you should be as thorough as posible and correct with the specs and photos. Who the heck is gonna buy something that's incorrectly labled or described? Even messing up on one thing like that is enough to make me not want to trust them.
    But then again I also don't use ebay.

    I hate to break it to you but ATF is a kind of oil with additives for an auto tranny.
