Default How much to pay for a used Crx Si engine?

Due to the previous idiot errr owner of my rebuilt Si engine I am in need of a new used Si engine. My questions is does anyone have a ballpark figure as to how much a used Si engine is going for? I live in San Diego, Cali for your info. What is average for a private party and also for auto wreckers.

In care your wondering what happened, who ever rebuilt the engine used locktite on both the main pully and tensioner bolt, long story short the tensioner bolt stripped itself inside the block.

$600 is way too much.

I wouldn't pay any more than $300.

250-300. Theres people on recycler.com selling engine, tranny ecu and axles for like 200 bucks a lotta times. 600 is way too much, you can get a Dual cam ZC for that much.

Yeah, if it included installation, then it wasn't a bad deal at all. It was probably about $200 for the engine, and $400 for the labor.

I paid $400.00 for my engine and tranny combo...that included
a '90 crx ( that played duck duck goose with a pole and lost )
with a few much needed parts on it....i have seen ranges from $75.00
(beta13 old engine...missed out on) to $650.00 from a local boneyard
it all depends.

Good luck.

I got my extra one for $120, and was going to buy my friends for $80 but already had 1...didn't need another. People trash these things, wait on them to get sick of it laying around them buy it cheap cheap cheap!

Yeah...most times its just dumb luck. All you can do is just do is search
search and ask around...a lot of times they just fall into you lap.

Once again.....good luck on your hunt.
