there is alot of i want it dirt cheap ... i do not want to build it just drive it ..on Ebay but i could be wrong there is alot of guys that look at a engine as a big deal and do not have a line on a guy like alot of gear heads know more then one guy that can help them or a shop in there town. life seams more fast pace no one wants to do it them self or take the time to learn . i have a SHP dart 400 short block on ebay i did some trading with a good customer for work and cash to pick it up all new good price still not sold on e bay been on for many weeks hard for me to think that you can not sell a small block any more ? Economy ??? so i see it as well but i do not deal with cars but i see some of it in what i try to sell on line
