20b price?

a buddy of mine has been collecting rx7 parts for quite some time now and he just recently moved and he gave me first dibs on what every i wanted

soooooooooo guess what i found 4 20b motors ,,they are complete but minus the brackets and what not but there completely assembled and all internals are there i asked him about them but he has had them awhile and cant remember the miles on them or whether or not they ran but hey they are 20b

so how much can i sell them for not knowing the miles or if they run
im hoping somthing,like 1.5k a piece i need to get my fd project going

You're asking way to much. I'll give you $500 cash for one.

Nice try!!

4 20Bs sitting around and a guy that has 33 posts? Sounds a bit "scammish" to me.

Well it sounds like you got a great deal there.

For prices on a 20b block, just check the for sale forum. Search through the old FS ads to get an idea pricing. If you can hook up a tranny with starter to crank it, you can/should check the compression on them.

our dear friend the school teacher (Japan2LA) does 'em for roughly $4,500 +/- the engines condition (shortblock).

Have you tried to turn the engine(s) and see if there are 3 equal "puffs" coming out of each spark plug hole?

We are top official of the federal government contract review panel who are interested in importation of 20B engines into our country with funds which are presently trapped in Nigeria. In order to commence this business we solicit your assistance to enable us transfer into your account said trapped funds.

However, by virtue of our position as civil servants and members of this panel, we cannot acquire this money in our names. I have therefore been delegated, as a matter of trust by my colleagues of the panel, to look for an overseas partner into whose account we would transfer the sum of US $21,320,000.00 (twenty one million, three hundred and twenty thousand U.S. dollars). We have agreed to share the money thus; 1. 20% for the account owner 2. 70% for us (the officials) 3. 10% to be used in settling taxation and all local and foreign expenses. 4. All of your 20B R belong to us.

We know we can trust you because of your service to your country and the fact that your friend gave you $16,000 worth of engines for free. We are looking forward to doing this business with you and solicit your confidentiality in this transaction.

My client is interested in buying your engines and because he thinks you are a good person, he is willing to give you $5,000 more for your troubles. I will make a one time payment of $25,000.00 and you ship me the engines but keep the remainder of the funs for your troubles. My client will be contacting you soon.

Hey viper2020cobra you said you would sell me an engine. Funny thing is that I want to pick it up in person and now you won't answer my email or pm. I will even give you more money than you asked for the engine. If you really want to sell the engines I don't think anyone is just going to send you money. I will pick up three of them with cash in hand this week. Let's go......

well i was holding back in hopes that there had been a mistake, but there wasnt. this guy is completely full of ****. the address that he gave me does not exist!! the street is real, but the house number isnt. i drove all the way to TN (3.5 hours each way) yesterday evening to find that he had conviniently turned off his phone. and to top it all off, i had brought a rolling shell that was going to be partial trade for the engine!!! i even went to the local fire department and talked with them(very helpful) and they confirmed this address was not real. nor was his "name" listed in the phone book.

since i got back he has not returned any of my pms or e-mails and has been online. nor did he send me a pm asking what happend? why didnt you show up? or something to that effect. NOTHING!

luckely i had not sent him any money to hold the engine, but i managed to waste $200 in diesel and a whole afternoon/night. and people wonder why everyone is so hesitant to buy from people on this forum, its ******** like you!!!! the only thing i dont understand is what were you trying to get out of this? you had none of my money and i never even saw you? maybe a good laugh sending me on a wild goose chase???????????????????

I have been SCREAMING B.S. from the start of this thread.. I am sure we will find out later than some poor member already sent this guy money as a deposit and is screwed...

When you really want that 20B contact me, I really have the engines...

dont worry, i have already made up my mind that im going to buy it from you, but it will be about another month before i have the extra money. send me a pm for the price shipped on a d-code longblock. and if you dont have it in stock, how long it will take to get. i am pretty patient and willing to wait for what i want.
