Automotive Machine gets 350 for a rebuildable core . If an engine has good P/C , heads , cam & only needs linebore & crank ???? Add a crank & bearings & its worth 1k ????? terry -----Original Message----- From: wuzmop <wuzmop@xxxxxxx> To: tcb <tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, May 31, 2012 12:13 pm Subject: [tcb] Re: Question of the day ? A core block at a regular shop is typically only worth about 150-200. Most wont even give that if the crank is broken. You and he may know the parts better than I or a shop would, and they may be worth more between friends. -----Original Message----- From: singlecabboy <sealingwaxred@xxxxxxxxx> To: tcb <tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, May 31, 2012 11:46 am Subject: [tcb] Question of the day ? As most of you know I broke a crank in the Zone.new long block(1776) is ready to be stabbed, we just need to install the new oil cooler.For the labor Bob x number of dollars and then me sell him the old long block minus crank,the block has already been fixed.Good heads,cylinders pistons ,110 cam, well everything except the crank ,it's a 1641.How much should I ask to be deducted from my bill.?
