Motors – 5.0, 2.3 Turbo, 8BA Flathead

We have a 5.0 from an 88 T-Bird for $100, a 2.3 Turbo motor from an 88 Turbo Coupe for $300 (both motors have between 100K and 120K on them), and an 8BA Flathead from a 50 Ford (don’t ask) for $500.  My son drove the 5.0 car almost 100 miles home, so I know that is a good motor.  The 2.3 is supposed to be good, but I haven’t personally heard it run.  I used to drive the 50 Ford myself, so that was a good motor too.  I'll be going to Indy this weekend and could meet between Minnesota and Indianapolis if that would help.  Will be leaving MN early on Sunday, May 13 and returning early on Thursday, May 17.  Feel free to PM for details.  Thanks.
