No Gillio I just bought this 88' 250 off Craigslist. The engine wasn't running, so I sent it to Iceracer. He split the cases and told me stories of horror. spun bearings, bearings installed backwards, cases screwed together with whatever would go in. If I remember right, there was only a few useable parts in the whole thing. I'm just glad I sent it to him, instead of trying to get that pos running. Can you imagine how much that probably saved me.
