$$$$Help me out here$$$$
 

Need to get rid of an engine and i have no idea what to ask for it. My son's car that we are in the process of building up has a 66 289 in it (which has to go to make room for the big boy :) ) . Its basically stock other than a Weiand stealth manifold with a Holley 4 bbl. When we bought the car the guy said motor had about 10,000 miles since complete rebuild. My son has put on about another 7,000 miles since then. Engine runs like a watch and seems nice and tight ... it maintains 75 lbs of oil pressure when fully warmed up on the hottest of days. My question is how much???Got a couple of people that might want to buy it and i have no idea what to ask for it ???? Help me out here ... how much is it worth ?

whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

Good question, but I would guess around a few hundred dollars.

A completely stock 289 around here goes for between 250 and 500 bucks,add or subtract the extras at about 50% of original cost if you sell it as is. I would start at 600 and give them a "deal" at 450 or 500.

I'll give you $150 if you deliver it, $75 if I have to pick it up.

:)

Take care,
