Whats this engine worth??
I just got a 96 cobra engine with 40K miles on it with pcm, harness
Only damage in the accident was the 2 pig tails that lead to the coil packs where broken off and a little battery acid splashed one of the valve covers.
I’m trying to figure out the value of this thing and trying to make fair trades in my area and can’t seem to get an answer in today’s economy
Does any one know if I could take the pcm to a tuner and find the MPH at the time of the accident and the miles? I would think there would me some kind of number linking the engine to the pcm. It’s been out of the car sense 99.
Thanks
Ebay and junk yards are bad imo to compare to. Guys at the yards charge an unrealistic price and there aren’t any on ebay with the low miles on them and then you find ones that don’t state the miles so wtf I cant gage a fair asking price.
I’ve seen guys on various stang sites selling just the used block in need of rebuild for $500 and heads for $250 haven’t seen what the intake goes for. But I would be a fool to split a lower millage motor up that way.
Please throw some figures out there for the average guy selling it out of his garage.
Links any thing thanks guys

Sold for $900 plus dude drove 4 to 5 hrs to pick this thing up with his own cherry picker.
He said it’s going in his AC Cobra replica that now has a 97 4.6 SOHC Gt. He said the extra 80hp plus the little to no extra weight between the 2 engines should make for a sweet combo.
I asked if he had plains for a blower and he said it was bad enough with a 220hp engine in a 1500 lbs car. LOL I hope he has fun with his new toy =)
