I'd say there's other issues besides the timing being off.
either it's ready to be fired up, or it runs and drives- that **** makes no sense. and unless I'm missing something, that's got the most ****ed-up backwards bandaid management system I've seen in a while.
short version: no, it isn't worth $3000.sigpic

i called him and ask about the turbo he said no play in the turbo and then i asked about it not starting. he said in order to run the engine i would need to probably run megasquirt. do you think i could get 550 injectors and run 9:1 compression? He said there is lots of spare parts that i could use and said he had the stock injectors too. Do you think i could inspect the damage in any way while im there to buy it ? Also what do you guys think the deal is worth, like price range?2000 or 2500

He said it was in the garage and he didnt run it past 8psi for boost. do you think the damage has went to far. he says he also has some other ecu's in the parts thats included. If i call him back what should i ask him to let you guys know more about the motor. i could car less about the shell just the parts and engine is what i want.

with half of a clue you could make that work on a stock computer, you don't need to use a Megasquirt.
I don't know if he damaged anything that badly but with that FMU and injectors that big it was certainly running pig rich. pull the valve cover, do a compression test, etc. even if that motor ends up being junk you can find another one without much of a problem.
offer him $2k, use whatever you need, and part out the rest and make some money back. you can usually find someone on here looking for a rust-free shell, and if those are legit 820s I'd even work out a deal with you for a set of 460s...sigpic
