They say a picture tells a 1000 words, looks like all 1000 of the words in this picture says junk.

Far too high. That block looks to have been in a fairly intense fire, which causes all sorts of metal tempering in bad areas.

Which place in el paso? I had my eye on a few 6.0s there, but they told me they wouldn't even sell them cause of fire damage. Why they were listed for sale I don't know. That thing is nasty though. Definitely would not touch...
