^ ok you should do a little bit more searching...

However, the KA24DE is the stock motor the came in this car. It is possible the the motor in it blew so he "Swapped" another KA24DE in its place. This doesn't necessarily mean it's bad, but i would have someone that is mechanically inclined to look over the car and make sure that the swap was done correctly. Do a compression test to see how the motor is running. Do a leak down test to see if there is any leakage anywhere... just go with the plan of having a mechanic look at it, if you trust them and they say its good and the price is right then why not get it?
