B280 engine value
 
I will be removing a 1989 760 B280 engine in a month or so, it has 233k miles and blown headgaskets but still runs and sounds very nice indeed! I've tried looking online to see if any are for sale but I can't find any to get a value, anyone got any ideas?

I doubt very much there is a call for this no one would buy one just for a spare especially spend money on it getting the heads and liner heights sorted ..

If someone particularly wanted one they would go for the later Renault version with 4 valve heads .

They are very much in demand for rebuild, I often get asked for them or even just the heads
