Buick 3.8 turbo motor

[TTA 1077]

I've had a Complete Buick 3.8 Turbo Motor sitting around for the last 10 or so years. It came out of my '86 Regal T with 110k. I sold the car and tranny to some guy who had a race motor built and just wanted the car. So Anyway, I think its time to let it go as I could use the cash right now. I figure if I haven't done anything with it in the last 10 years, I probably wont. What is the going rate these days? The motor is complete, but totally disassembled. It has everything, Turbo, intercooler, exhaust manifolds and cross over, DP, hardware, crank, heads, rods, pistons, intake, heads, everything. It also has a Lunati 245/250 Cam. Not sure at this point if parting would be better as I would be stuck with various unwanted parts, so I would like to get rid of it as a whole motor. Parting would be last resort.

I would think anywhere from 800 to 1800 range. Parting it out should bring around 800 range. I would think in this economy. I think the last long block I saw sell went for about 500 around the miles/condition of yours. Then you have the complete intake and that sells for around 300 range. Bottom line, It's all about finding that person that needs an engine and has cash in hand. 110K I would assume it could use new bearings and a clean up as well. But if it's a virgin block that always helps the sale as well.

It definitely will need to be cleaned up, its been sitting in garage for at least 10 years. I'll post pictures as soon as I take them. Just wanted to get a pricing idea before I start listing it. Everything was working well when I pulled it and disassembled it. I would assume If anyone was going to re assemble it, new bearings would be on the parts list. I know I would.
