Ask when or if the timing chain has been replaced as its a lot of money just for the parts, it will go bang with a total loss if it hasn't, the last kit I got was about 500 quid from Suzuki as found the ones advertised on ebay as OE were not and were very soft, put one on my brothers 2.7 XL-7 and it snapped, total loss.
Lovely engine when running right, smooth and powerful, clutches are about 2 to 300 hundred quid as well.
Good luck in your quest
