If so, with the useless information I have, can anyone throw up some values of these things?

It would seem these are priceless...which is why I am hanging on to mine

a 6 cyl. complete engine in unknown condition is around $100
the holden engine kit , I would think of about $75
If they are just series rims In average condition $10 each, good condition $20-$30 each

Save all 6 cylinders!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the 6 cylinder engine are going up in demand of late due to engineering certificates and originality

I know someone who's developing a Land Rover 6 to perform like it always had the potential to perform. The work includes timing, breathing and exhaust modifications.

It may be a case that we all want our F heads back and dump the Holden engines.

I'd love to find a good runner LandRover 6cyl just to bring mine back to standard.

I have never given up on them, I think they are a good solid engine. One look at the size of the big end and main journals, and the 7 bearing crank says to me that this engine is just asking for a bit of tuning, or a turbo.
Mine has only had the valve timing advanced 6deg, and that alone has made a noticeable difference to its performance.

Recently paid $80 for an unsiezed complete unit - condition unknown. If it is siesed, then less than that I would think.
