I bid for a Lexus LS 400 (first gen) engine for a dollar and the bid got up to 15.00 and it has around 60,000 miles and it's in good condition and I was wondering what would the shipping go for an engine and you think it's a good idea to do this?..also I wanna know what the installation price would be for the engine. I mainly bid for it because one of my lifters are broken and i have around 102,000 on my engine

thanks

I have been looking at this one too. Previous one went up to $500 I think. Cutecboy will be bidding on that one too I bet...last time he did.

Here's the stats...some guy outbid me for 15.50 and the seller told me that it's $100 for shipping which isn't worth it 'cause I might go and pick it up (it's in Rancho Cordova,CA) and I'm in Los Angeles, which I would be saving around $80 and next time I bid I'm just gonna bid the last seconds becuase the engine was going for a dollar.:eek:

Just watch the price go up man. Also don't post this on the forum...you will get much more competition.

After 15.00 I didn't care because they're gonna get screwed with the shipping.....

Last time shipping was $300. If you call 100 "screwed" then you don't need to buy an engine off e-bay...lol

Thats right.

Serious man, your complaining over $115 for an engine for your car. Where is your sense of reality?

hey people, i used to dable in swaps (honda's and DSM's) and my engine supplier has 2 LSengines sitting there, he's had them for about 2-3 years now, he says he cant sell them because LS400's dont break down, last time i checked he had 2, one was 90-94 LS400 and the other was 95-97 ( think) if your in need i can ask what he wants for them.

Ask about milage, price, working conditions (valve timing), and what comes with engine. Thx man.

so figure 40k miles, and they come with the usuall stuff you get on a imprted engine, minus the alt
