Depends what they go for in cleavland. There is no standard price. In my area a 1.6 vtec is worth almost the same as a ls with the whole save the sohc movement. It's all about finding the right person. For example I could get a ls swap for 300$ here if I really look and pull it. But yet people will pay 800$ for one.... So it's more up to: how much you want out of it, and a waiting game.

300 is insane here around the atl area you are lucky to find just a long block for 300, whole swaps go for around 800 and up.

yea i planned on selling it but i wanted to make sure it ran good so i went ahead and put it in the civic so i can show it run and trans shifts perfect. i wanna sell it to start buying stuff to put my built turboed h22 in it.
