Electrifying Question

Now I have a fully charged HV battery and it will start the ICE, but the car only runs on the ICE not the HV. The car has very little power from the engine. After It got up to temperature it was a slooooow climb to 30 - 35 mph.

I should have stuck to my original plans and that was don’t repair anything until the ICE and Hybrid system work completely.
Put a Pontiac V8 in the Prius.
 
I bought a 1970 Pontiac 350 V8 from a 1970 Firebird Espirit about 2-1/2 years ago.
It was a 2-bbl engine.
Bought it for $175 in Iowa drive to buy it and bring it back home to IL.
Needs an overbore New pistons basic rebuild.
Has all the nice features 1970 400 & 455 engines have same year.
Compression ratio is 8.8:1 about 88 cc chamber heads.
 
EBAY tends to favor the buyers over the vendors in my experience,
but Ive been screwed as a buyer and seller on SCAMBAY!
Ive sold parts and had people ship back old busted parts or empty boxes and demand a full refund,
and ebay deducts the cost, and makes refunds,
even when you show pictures of what you shipped and what you got returned,
were obviously not similar.
and I've had crap shipped to me that was nothing like the pictured item,
and ebay did not give me a refund.

your almost always best to only deal with known commercial vendors
(certainly not fool-proof but limits risk somewhat)
Id say about 85%-95% of the time youll be ok, :D
but the 10%-15% pisses you off!:mad:
