wetrats , chrisr is right,,the 2r is for rectangler ports and 2o for oval , both were advertised as 3500 to8000 but it is not the exact manifold(454) in apperance as the one you are looking for ,,,but does flow the same.
The ram 2r runs 4500 to 8500 but that is tunnel ram....
I don't think the man tried to "SCREW" you as you said but neither of you really knew what he had,,,mayby he would have been better off saying that he didn't really know what it was , but it was still up to you to make the purchase based on what info you had. It would be nice if he agreed to undo deal because of confusion but I don't think he is obligated to ..
Just my two cents ,,,good luck selling it if that 's what it takes , shouldn't be a problem...
