Re: how much
Sounds like a $100 to $200 motor around here. For $500 you could get the truck with it.

Re: how much
$500.00 sounds a little high to me also.I agree the long block is probably a better deal, but,if you don't have an engine now you will have a ton of small stuff that adds up to get a longblock up and running.Like a carb,intake,dist,water pump and any of the vacuum,fuel lines and so on.

Re: how much
I agree...$100 motor tops. I wouldn't doubt with it just going over 100k that at least one of the lobes on the cam is rounding off too.
