In my past experience you will get more $ from your used engines by parting them out. Have the blowers resealed and sell as fresh. Pressure test the headers and pipes. Send the transmissions to Huber and have them freshened up. The freshened up and tested parts should bring 40%-50% of new. The rest is used parts. Heads cranks, rods should bring 25%-35% of new. Don't waste $ working on them as most folks will want to do that themselves @ their engine builder. You might get $500 for the one good block. Toss the cams, lifters, pistons, & bad block. Good luck.

The Patterson headers have less than 50 hours on them. they have been sitting in a warehouse for the last 14 years. They would be really nice on a single carb engine set-up.


Carl, any pics of the P-son headers?

Hey Carl---I remember those old Patterson headers with the Y-pipes sticking out the transom of your Apache----yes, I remember them very well. Unfortunately, once you got that Apache, seeing the back end of your boat was something we, and everyone else had to get accustomed to---not much of a choice....especially from Booky's boat! Had a lot of fun.
