Found one for sale locally, didn't find anything when I searched (but my internet is being retarded).

Looks like it has everything from the clutch forward (carb, dizzy, etc). It's out of an 83 with supposedly 60k on it, but I think the front rotor is gone (no puffs at all when turned by hand).

He wants 250 for it, is that reasonable?

 

i am picking up a 12a this weekend, i am paying $200, for a 110,000km (canada) motor, doesn't have a clutch, but has 100 psi, both rotors. i think i found myself a steal though.

but i've seen 12a motors go from $150 to $600 running, good compression.

if you need a running motor, i'd look around, but if you just want something to rebuild, then maybe that motor is for you. hope that helps

yeah 150 to 300 depends on what is included w the motor! or compression

 

Definitely reasonable, especially if it's a "running" motor. Around here a core in a junkyard will be $800CDN (about $700USD) condition unknown. So if I see one that cheap I grab it. However, in some places in the US, they're a dime a dozen. I'd get it, it's not a bad price for a core.

with the engine bad, I would say $100, If you want a bad engine.
A bit more if you need the Carb or other parts off it.

An unknown Junkyard Core here is $100.

 

holy **** 700 for an UNKNOWN core...
wanna buy one from me?
lol

 

Thanks for all the replies guys!

 

$700?? can't you usually buy an entire running and driving 1st gen rx-7 for that much? if the market is really like that in canada, then if I need to sell my fb i'll be heading up there.
