So my 1990 7-up rotted out after 16 years in the family, but the engine is really nice AFR heads, Trickflow intake, etc etc. So I picked up a 1995 (so I can transplant the engine) I paid $4k for it and it only has 80k miles on it. Was that a reasonable price?

I figure with this I can start combing the high skools again !!!!

I started parting out the 1990 and with the $$ i get from that I'm going to start modifying. Other than the intake elbow and the water pump is there any other things I might run into on my engine swap?

your going to want to keep the accessories from the 95. including the timing cover. the elbow is needed if your going to keep your trickflow intake but then you'll also need a 94-95 throttle body; but since you already have a fox laying there, you might as well just convert to a fox style and be done with it.
