Default CRV engine value?

Friend of mine may sell his CRV coded 454. What I know is it's standard bore, complete intake to pan, and there is a CRV code on the deck with a partial VIN. Apparently it has been sitting for over 40 years. Can someone PM me with a guess on market value?

Thanks!

Inquiring minds need to know the VIN# Possibly this engine came out of an El Camino in the the early !970's from the Joliet Illinois area with a 221144 on it, did it?

sorry guys, I have no other info on the motor today. I'll see it this week and post.
Can you give me some idea of what you think it's worth?

Thanks!
Tony

Tony, my buddy has one thats coded CRV and has no VIN..hes tried to sell it for at least 5 years and no takers at $6500..no one will even haggle with him or show interest in buying it..hes hauled it all over the midwest to swaps etc...so i dont know what the value is...i would think his would be a better deal since theres no vin and has a possibility to fit many more cars but i guess it doesnt.

Mark, thanks for your note. I would have guessed your buddy's motor is worth at least $6500 with no VIN...I wonder if the date code is outside where an assembly line motor would be? How complete is your buddy's motor?

pretty complete carb to pan, distrib to fan..he thinks the carb is too late for the motor.with mani's..i cant remember the dates..but he said it was right in them middle of production, what ever that means.

he thinks its all standard and was sitting in a machine shop back room when he found it, its owner passed after dropingit off for a rebuild, kids didnt want the motor..and car no where around, was supposed to be a L78 for a Nova but was a LS6
