$1000-$1800

Always see the ads with a hailed out truck that says "$3500 you all know the engine is easily worth that"

Oh? Where? I've got a few I'd sell for $3500!

$5 to $6 thousand, usually the pumps are worked or new. Pumps are not cheap(1-2K), you can core a pump for $800. I wouldn't ask any lower than 4k unless the engine has 500,000 miles.

Mid Illinois, we have a local looking to get 1200 for a supposed 70K mile VE 6BT, not sold yet.

I'm thinking about picking it up just because I can............

I wish I could find a ve for those prices. The very rare occasion that one pops up they are wanting 3k. There are a few pee pump engines here for 1-2k, which is what I'm gonna pick up.

Don't come up sale very often around here but when they do they usually have an asking price of 2k-2500.00.

Not sure if they sell or not.....
