What's my motor worth?

[malibu_adam]

Need help guys... I am looking to sell a healthy running mopar 340 motor/mild cam and auto transmission. I don't know the mileage on it but she runs nicely. It's a 1969 built 340... I have no idea the value though, any input? Thanks

$15 is book. I'm a prince and will give you $20 if you deliver.

$2k maybe?

What trans? 727?

 

[Reli]

Is it the 6-pack?

Need more deetz. What does it include exactly? Is it bone stock or modified, and if so what? If stock, still, what does it include? And yes, what tranny and is that stock or modified? Torque converter?

Like saying you have a house for sale and axin' what it's worth.

Where has it been sitting ? under a tarp, in a field ? , in a temp controlled environment ?
something inbetween ?

As a rebuildable core? $300-$400-$500. I wouldn't buy anything like that and put it in something without having a looksee inside it. See which heads, pistons, etc. Same with the trans. I'd hate to put it in something and have to pull it back out because.......


340 is very desireable though.

Good call. Also on pulling the heads. An improperly stored engine can turn to scrap in a few years.

And as always... A pic is worth a thousand words.

I don't know many details... It runs very healthy. Does not vibrate, sounds mean, starts up first turn of the key...

Not stock, has just a mild cam and a medium rise manifold. That is all I know. Serial number shows it's a 340. It is currently in my dart (originally a 318 car) which is garage kept. Previous owner had it in driveway with a cover and one of those white driveway car shades

Why are you pulling it?

 

[aminalmutha]

Replacing with blown 572 aluminum Keith Black Hemi.

Well that's a pretty good reason.

I wonder what the average 20yo thinks when he sees an engine like that. Probably doesn't know what it is and thinks engines are big plastic guards with a shitload of wires.

 

[malibu_adam]

You guys will judge me... im dropping an ls1 in it.

 

[byke]

Heck no. It's a Dart, do whatever you want with it.

If it ain't broke.....
