Hey guys, please don't flame as I've searched and can't find any consensus. Some people have said they've gotten a 10k mile LY6 for $2500, others for $1400.
Is there a general consensus about what's considered a good price for these, or at least a good ballpark?
Any ideas would be a great help, because I don't know where to begin to bargain.
So the real question is, for a complete LY6 (assume between 10 and 40k miles) pullout including ECU, harness, all acc., what's a good price?
thanks
Jim

I found my 30K LY6 engine for $1400. I've seen them at $1200 but with something like 70K. I typically see them run $1600-$2500 with milage ranging from 2K-40K

FWIW- I paid $50 extra each for the starter, ECM, harness. But they butchered the harness beyond use.

Thanks Jimbo. Yeah that's pretty much the range I've seen and I can't get a good bearing about whether $1700 for a 30k LY6 with absolutely everything except the harness is a good deal or not.
the feedback is appreciated

whats " absolutely everything " ? I would say thats a good deal. if its starter, ECM and engine. If it includes FEAD (front end accessary drive) too. then jump on it soon.:D

pan to intake, coil packs, alternator, power steering pump, ac compressor, starter, flywheel, ECM is absolutely everything. I just need to find out where to get a wiring harness. Don't really feel like spending 1500 on a MAST setup.

Yeah you don't need to spend $1500 on a mast setup. I got my whole setup from pan to intake including harness and ECM for $2140 out the door with a motor that had 8k miles on it. IMO, only use MAST if you've got a specific reason to or if you find a specific feature on the MAST ECU that can't be had anywhere else... the e38 ECU will do most everything anyone needs.
