how much if i sold my lo3

Im contemplating dropping a 350 into my car in a few months, and I am thinking about how to come up with money for it. I'm guessing i can sell my Lo3 but dunno if theres a demand of people who would want to buy it. I searched EBay and no one is really selling them there. ANybody know how much its worth with 90,000 miles that runs strong and has no major mods done to it?

A running motor is probably worth $100-$200.
My motor was burning oil like a smoke machine, so I gave it away.
Tim could have had it but I needed to get the engine out of my neighbors garage so it went to the first person to show up with a truck. I would have liked to have ripped the motor apart but school was and still is priority.
You can get extra money for the intake TB if you plan on selling it. Just remember to tell the prospective buyers the miles and that it's got a roller lifter setup which alone is probably worth an honest $50 complete. If you go to carb or use a larger TBI unit you can sell the stocker and stock intake manifold for another $60, maybe even $70 if you make the fuel pressure regulated and do some of your own porting work.

What JPrevost said in three words: part - it - out

$100 - $200 is about right for that motor. The local machine shops won't even take them because they can't even give them away.
