Not if its a budget rebuild with bottom-barrel parts and the 400hp is flywhell...then the price is right on par .

It's a mod car. Thats a good price as long as you check it out and make sure there is nothing going on internally in the engine and no signs of a wreck. I would go into that thinking that the engine has cheap parts in it unless he can produce papers proving other wise. Then I'd take it home and run it till it blows. 3600 for 94 with 93k on it and it's a 6speed with wheels not a bad price as long as it runs good.
