If its a bare block WITH the Bearing caps with no crank and it is rebuildable maybe a couple hundred to the right person. If it has a crank and connecting rods add $100-150. if its a complete engine minus externals then $400 to 500 MAX. Thats for an L head if its a F head figure a little less as they made them clear up to 1971.
if the block has busted studs or cracks etc then it could be a worthless. Condition is everything. At least thats what I see around here. |

It's an L-Head block, used in CJ3A's and M-38's, and I think, DJ3A's, from about 1949 or 50 on up. As far as worth, Mark has it about right. Location could have an effect on its worth - Where are you? BW

Note what Mark said about the bearing caps, with out those, the block is worth its weight in scrap "dirty" cast iron.
Mark & Bruce have the numbers about right. Finding a buyer is the trick. I had one given to me as the fellow had tried to sell it on Craig's List for a month or so with no takers. It is sitting in my barn waiting for me to get time to look at it. |
