well if it needs anything all it would need is reringed rod and main bearings. pretty cheap to do. i think i basic overhaul kit is 300 tops. basically you want to do a leak down test on the engine. you could part and scrap for 75 and make money though. your carb would work just need to retune it. you would have to find a 4 bb intake. i got one for 50 bucks of the buick board. or you can get a ta alum one. there usually about 250 new or you can luck up and get them used for about 100-150.
