Default To those with swaps: what did you do with your old engine?

Can I sell it to anyone, will anyone buy it is the more logical question. My d16y5 is just taking up space. Any ideas?

For the right price, anyone will buy anything.

I killed mine before the swap. Blew the head gasket. It put a hole in the head about 3/4" deep and cracked one of the cylinder walls.

I stack things on my old engines. They're like tables, sort of.
