Just last night I looked at this ad...but it was in the Boise craigslist...Weird or scam??? http://boise.craigslist.org/pts/988583177.html
Area code 208 is for Idaho. Its a possibility that it was just listed incorrectly in the Portland Craigslist. I wouldnt recommend anyone to buy this engine sight unseen. It very well could be a scam too. I would see if there is a board member closeby that could look at it in person. He's be better off breaking the motor up for parts and selling it off piece by piece.
