SVX engine for sale

Featured Replies

SVX engine for sale $1100 FOB. Duncan, OK 73533

I took this engine from a running SVX.  It did have a blown headgasket but was still strong.  I planned to use it on a hovercraft.   it has been stored inside and oil was put down the intake when I shut it down.

LoL. You can buy whole SVX's for less than that. And with a blown HG no less? Bonus points that count toward sitting at the cool kids table no doubt. LOL.

JDM import EZ30's with a warranty cost about that much. What exactly do you think you have there? Looks like a big question mark looking for an anchor chain to me. 

Scrap it.

Please send me a place where I may buy a 'whole SVS" for this amount.

Mike

I see them frequently. Regardless an EG33 with a blown head gasket, unknown history, that's been sitting for years and we can't see it run.... yeah weigh it and whatever that times mixed aluminum scrap price = value.

You are a fake.

I know exactly what this engine weights, I have 100's hours of time with an EJ33 on a hovercraft.

Additionally, one may not sell itof aluminum, as it has lots of not alumionum parts in it.

Mike

Your experience with hovercrafts is irrelevant. I see plenty of SVX's for sale here in OR. There was one not 20 minutes from me for $1500 on craigslist last week. 

You can sell it as dirty aluminum. You get more than steel, but less than clean aluminum. It's a thing - here anyway. 

Yeah I'm a fake. Totally. Check my post count.

As a point of reference. I just bought a great running svx engine with 89k on it for $150. I could have bought the rest of the car for $400. 

I generally don't agree with posting to criticize a sale price. I prefer to let the market bear what it will bear.

 

 

But GD is right. I've owned 3 SVXs, 2 had great engines (other problems, admittedly, but excellent engine donors), for a grand total of $800.

I probably wouldn't scrap it, but I wouldn't pay much more than scrap value.

Nothing on craigslist near you now. But here's one relatively near me: https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/cto/d/92-subaru-svx/6721027602.html

Still not a bargain, but what I found after about 5 minutes of searching. And you could still have it shipped across country, sell the lights, gauge cluster, wheels/tires and a few other things, and have an engine with known history, wiring, ecu and good head gaskets for less than $1100.

 

 

But yea, good luck the with sale. Might have better luck in the "For Sale" section.

It is a forum rule not to argue price and GD isn't known for being PR. Suffice it to say you'll have better luck listing that elsewhere with less subaru/mechanic experience. 

As you requested - it took 6 seconds to find one in his city that's being parted out:

Here are more than 36 with warranties and no blown headgaskets:

JDM importers may be able to still get some depending if it's supply or demand slowing down that train:

Yeah it's a forum rule - if you post it in the "For Sale" forum. This isn't that. Honestly I don't look there but someone else would have LOL'd at it I'm sure. That's ridiculous.
