Price for Used Lycoming O-360-A1F6 engine

[PH-SCP]

Hi guys,

I have been offered a Lycoming O-360-A1F6 engine (with all accessories) that ran on a C177B until it was damaged beyond repair.
2000 hours without missing a beat, good compressions and hardly any oil usage. Sound like a great engine to use on an experimental after TLC.

What would be a "normal" purchase price for such an engine ??

Thanks for your inputs.

you can look on barnstormers.com and see what a simular engine is asking?

I would say the engine would be worth 8-9000 as a good as removed core with the fuel system mags and starter. If it was in an accident and the crank is bad, a replacement will run 5500-6500.

I didn't see many comparable engines on Barnstormers which led me to ask the question here. I wasn't being lazy Bret.

Thanks for the price indications. The engine was involved in an accident but didn't run at touchdown which tends me to believe that it is undamaged. Of course, inspection will tell..

I use a used Lycoming O-360A1F6 in my RV 7A which now has nearly 300 hours on it. When I bought it, it had been recently overhauled and I paid $14000 for it. So not a direct comparison but I have been very happy with it.

You can run a 2,000 hour engine for many more years. A friend of mine put 3,000 hours on a 160 horse Lyc in his Skyhawk!

If it hasn't been sitting around for a long time (years) you should be good to go.

Best,
