how do you tell the value on something like this?

what would someone be willing to pay for a fully built stock stocked 430 out of a 64 continentla that had a full port and polish on the heads ceramic coated pistons that were balanced and flycut relieved a roller valve train and custom one off msd distributor for street driving and a pristive never been used weind lm671 blower intake manifold. lots of other extras too many to list and im getting super burned out... id even part witht the manifold justby itself... so please anyone what is this stuff worth???? make me offer on manifold...

 

We do have a cl***ifieds section on here......

 

Ten bucks IF you can have it delivered to my loading dock, pre-paid freight.

 

Add up your receipts...do not include your labor....deduct 25% because the engine is apparently NOT completely ***embled, so you are unable to provide any guarantee that it will start and run. Then put it in the HAMB cl***ifieds with some kind of "won't take less than" figure....

A lot of guys (I'm one of them) really like those big 430s...they weight a bunch but if they'll pull a fat*** Linc around, think what it'll do in a nice little hot rod at half that weight.

Step up to the bar and name a number....how can anybody in here be expected to 'guess' on something only YOU have touched/seen/worked on?

Typicaly about 1/2 of retail price.

 

Put it on Ebay with no reserve.

You'll know exactly what it is worth in 7 days.

Fully built stock?

 

Yep,
About 1/2 to 3/4 what you have in it, not counting your labor. And that's if you have receipts and are willing to take the engine apart for inspection. Maybe more if you have a rep for putting together good engines or it's EXACTLY what someone is looking for.

Well right now I am talking with someone that has a 430 that he has taken apart . He just removed the intake & heads for a project and has lost interest . I can get it $150 . Not sure if I want another engine laying around !
