I was looking around at some of the crate engine sources and I saw a variety of prices. Does anyone know a rough ballpark for what a 5SFE should cost on average?

jspecautosports.com $895 !!!! ???? kindasad.gif http://www.jspecautosports.com/catalog_pro...spx?prod_id=428

(it says engine only but then goes on to list all this other stuff that is included. strange)

orientengine.com $2200

powerpro200.com $2545

It's kinda rediculous how much 5SFE's go for, even used from salvage yards on Car-Part.com or on EBay. kindasad.gif I'm keeping my eyes out also for a fresh(er) 5SFE and most rebuilt long blocks are about 1 grand upon core exchange, and any low mileage used motors are upwards of $1500-2000 which is just way too much.

It seems alot of these places see how common a motor it is, and decide to charge top dollar for them even with high mileage. Sorta rediculous, but theres more reasonable deals out there either from a U-pick-it yard or guys that swap or something.
