    So im looking at this flathead caddy motor for a LaSalle. Not sure what year and neither is he.

    I dont know to much for it but he wants to trade me even for a guitar I airbrushed and this wierd sheet metal star I made when I had the flu last year...

    Total what I have in them is probably around $30. Should I trade and from this pic can anyone give me anymore info?

    Also what all can you really do with this motor?

    So is it worth it? Or would that just be a big headache?

    Does it turn over? It's worth an easy $300-$500, and will make more HP than other flatheads- 135 stock. It weighs about 900 lbs, so it's worth $180 s**** price.

    Send me the block number, and I can give you specifics on it.
