well it must of been a hi out put one . i had a guy wanted to sell a 409 /425hp to me intake to pan for 1/2 that .fully rebuilt it very well cost that much . World was making blocks in aluminum . others are making heads . some bbc stuff can be make to work. 10 years ago my buddy had a 409 stroker that i sold him some parts . there still around seen one running in a farmers beet truck .who to call ? well there is a guy here in town thats called 409 larry not sure if he still around or would talk to you .look on ebay like i said just that some has one for 5000. may or may not be worth that.you would never see me pay that if i wanted one. i can build one up for less then that i bet i know guys that still have parts .i deal in bbc build them machine them sell them. i never get what i should for them when done. a engine with the right part numbers you may get more for a running engine but seen many running engines that were junk many are going in to buying a used engine thinking a head or block .crank .could be crack or welded been rebuilt time before and all used up .if you have money to sit on in hopes of making money on a low hp 348 it may take some time to flip it. look up the numbers for it see what your buying .the fact that it still running may help some but most are going to rebuild it most stuff will not be used othere then. head .block casting .rods crank damper.other engine parts end up in the trash less very low miles
