How much would this taken apart engine be worth in this condition

It’s a 2010ish Subaru ej25 SOHC. It comes with the heads, crank, piston rods, the engine block and a bunch of hardware and what not.
How much would be a reasonable price to sell it for in this condition? Maybe $100. I’d hate to scrap it

Search for similar items for sale on Facebook Marketplace, Ebay and similar. See what they are asking for a disassembled engine. Price yours accordingly. If no one bites, lower the price until someone does. If no one does, sell it to a scrap dealer.

Why is a good motor taken apart? Cuz it ain’t good? Scrap.

Call the dealer and ask them what the core charge for that engine is or other places that sells reman engines, maybe even machine shops that build those engines (if any)… because in it’s current condition it is nothing more than a core… You never know, if there is a local builder or machine shop that builds those engines they may buy it as a core just for spare parts…

My question is what is the back story to the engine being disassembled, if it was removed for a replacement engine why did they not want the core back??

A machine shop that builds heads might could use the heads as cores…

How much do you think this pocket watch is worth?

I hadn’t seen a picture of an opposed engine taken apart before! So why was it taken apart?

So it looks like that gear is a valuable part. That could sell for $55.67. And the body is an aluminum metal with a plated gold which could be worth $19.95. So I’m saying from parts, your packet watch is worth $100. Obviously I don’t know the exact value of the pocket watch but I could happily give you a rough estimate of what I think it’s worth even though it might be worth $106 or $101. But $100 is a good rough guess.

I didn’t know this was a pocket watch forum….

So you think it’s worth $62?

Thank you for the reasonable answer. I appreciate it.

I know a watch maker that could put it back together for probably $500 and he is retired.

I’ve done a couple small engines but seems to me when it is taken apart the rods need to be marked and matched to their original positions. May be other assembly problems too with just a basket of parts. So yeah, I think they are just engine parts with a limited market.

As far as that pocket watch repair went, you could contact Cleveland Watch Repair and ask them what the watch is worth… :wink:

Heh heh. My guy went to Switzerland right out of high school to train for watchmaking. We thought he was nuts but had a nice long career in the jewelry store, while the rest of us worked for the man. Well not everyone.
