With or without trans? With trans about a grand. Also depends on if the motor is complete intake to oilpan or not. Complete id say maybe 800. But some people have un realistic expectations about what their motors are worth so itll all depend.

I wouldnt be paying much at all. The chances of it being beat hard and put away wet is highly likely. They are dime a dozen

if it was me 400 max, someone else might think 700 is a good deal. A good deal is what you consider a good deal, not me
