I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH TO ASK FOR MY USED 5.0 ENGINE..IT IS A COMPLETE STOCK ENGINE W/ SHORTY HEADERS. IT HAS AROUND 150,000 MILES ON IT...HOW MUCH SHOULD I ASK FOR IT?

No more than 500 and thats only because its complete RIGHT?If it is a complete motor with that many miles 500 sounds about right.

My mechanic said to ask around 400-500 for it, but a guy i was talking to last night said that i was way too low..so i wasnt sure what to ask

4-500 is about right as far as im concerned.It has some high miles man.Whats the reason you arent building it up?

I just bought a new engine for it..i didnt want to put alot of money into and have to do a rebuild shortly after. I bought a 302 w/ CNC ported Cobra intake and gt-40x heads. I am putting the new engine in this weekend. Very anxious to see what it runs!

It should definately haul some ***!What kind of car you got this in?You may think about keeping the motor as a spare.If its stock and never been built its got two more rebuilds left in it.

Yea i wanted to keep the block and stroke it out later on but money is tight right now so i need the $500 to buy the parts I need to make the new engine run right. I have a 92' Dark grey metallic notchback w/ 17" cobra Rs, and a 4"cowl hood. I just had it painted so it looks real nice. I hope it will haul some ***. The car runs mid 13s right now looking to improve on that at least 1-1.5 seconds
