Default How much for a blown engine?

How much is a blown engine worth, do you guys think? Just wondering because, I'm about to buy another engine, and would like to put that money towards the new engine.


Thanks

If it's blown but the core is intact or easily reparable, it's worth about $2K (at least that's what one engine builder charges if you do not have an intact core).

If it has more holes in it than it's supposed to (depending on what "blown" means, I guess), it may be worth a lot less.
