what should i do?

i have a 2000 firebird with 57k miles cam, and longtubes. my plan was to turbo it and eventuall forge bottom end.

now someone(who dont know) wants to trade me a 454 out of a 73' with (353049 casting #) heads, says it has about 50k miles on it, compression ration is 8.75:1 and he said he will change the cam/lifters for a street/strip setup if i want

should i keep my engine that i know has no issues as of now or trust a stranger and his engine building skills?

i just need some advice/2nd opinions

thanks in advance

well, if he wants to trade the engine for a pencil box and three #2 pencils, then it seems a decent deal. If he wants your engine in trade, then not so much.
