I bought my 4th 80 series and couldn't see past the clean interior and lockers to the bad engine. Has a blown head gasket and piston slap. Looking for a running engine for a 96 lx450. Will need shipped to a barge in Seattle. I can't come inspect or help move.

Pausing for now. I spoke to a shop near Anchorage that has a few to choose from. He's going to test compression and oil pressure and set me up with one as long as everything checks out since he doesn't want to sell me a bad one. Thanks for all the fast responses.
