What brand are the heads?
Does it have a hyd. roller,mech. roller, or mech. cam in it?
Is it int. balanced or ext. balanced?

Erik,
I know, it's hard to value this thing without all that vital information. Unfortunately, I don't have it. I would assume that if it is in fact a 500HP stroker , it would have all the good stuff you describe in it. Lets assume it does - what would you think is a neighborhood number I could get for this thing?

I don't want to hurt any one's feelings but one it comes to used performane/race engines in my shop they are about half-price.
In other words if it was $6,000 when it went out the door know to me it is worth about $3000.
It really is hard for me to answer that question without knowing more about the engine.
