Had a guy offer to sell me a 91 Accord. Figured I could use it as a third car since it seemed reliable. He's trying to tell me that it has a 3.8 L (4 cylinder) engine in it and that somehow that's stock (but special factory order)
I'm thinking
1) pretty much nobody makes 3.0+L 4 cylinder engines at all
2) It has to be an aftermarket modified engine
He's a mechanic that owns his own shop - and I've heard him talk about the GM 3800 V6 more than a few times. I'm wondering if when I finally get to pop the hood I'll either:
1) Find a V6-3800 (GM)
2) Find a stock 2.2L V4 (Honda)
At this point,I'm thinking that if it's anything other than a stock engine, it's going to need some extra lookin-over or just pass -- special engines tend to mean 'special people' drove it that probably abused it.
