Default Is This a Good Price for a B20Z?

I found a junkyard with a CRV wrecked with less than 30K on it. The junk yard is selling the MOTOR ONLY for 600 cash and they pull it for you. Is this a good buy?

No. Whats the Name, Address, and Number to this junkyard? lol

I would DEFF. jump on that deal...usually companies like Hmotorsonline.com etc. sell B20 longblocks for $750 - $800. This is also good because you know for certain the exact amount of miles on the motor. Good Luck!

The crv was totalled from behind and the car that hit it burned up the back, so its basically flawless in the front, so i assume it was just a daily driven car so i imagine the motor is still in good shape cuz the engine bay wasnt touched by the wreck.

Hmotors and all them need to get on the ball, i got a guy in the inland empire so cal, will blow them off the floor, all day long for 600, thats with a recipt.. they talk all day long, its a class A motor.. that cheap 6bill B20 is a class C.. thats why its soo cheap. Yeah, maybe alittle funky.. but its a honda.. how shitty can it be? if its good on leak down compression, its good enough for a B20 VTEC prodject. I think i could swindle that bro down to 550 atleast.. but you gotta know the name of the game.. its who you know.
