Thank you all for the words if wisdom.  Both privately and in the chat.  I am located on the palouse.  Eastern washington.  (Dont let the west side tarnish our reputation.) (No room for high octane fumes in a tiny house//unless..wait does sentsy make that? Damn im gonna be rich.)  Well...  unless you found yourself a good one.  And she agrees that the shop needs built first. 

How much is a 289 hipo with.  I grew up in a farming family.  My dad had mentioned a few times that there was a 289 in the cabinets in his shop.  The other day I opened them up and took a look. (He unexpectedly passed a year ago.). There's probly 5 plus engines in there.  (Shelves 30 feet long.)
I grabbed one of the cranks and pulled it out.  It had the aaa crown 1m markings on it.  Which seems to be a hipo 289.  Along with the heavy dampner.  Rods checked out too.  So I was just curious.  Thanks in advance for any information on this motor.  !!!   Thank you.  Ps.  It's time to live for today.  Something he taught me from the grave.  He was always working for tomorrow.  And never saw it.  Yet. 300 people at a farmers funeral shows how big his shoes were. Thanks guys.
