If the cam is not destroyed don't scrap it sell it. Fords wants $500+ for the cam. So you will get more selling it then scraping it.

I would scrap the block and try to sell everything else. If you don't have any luck it won't be a big deal, I don't see the price of steel dropping any time soon.

The heads are considered junk too, i would say your block and heads weigh about 650lbs.

Call a couple scrap yards and get a quote b4 you take it . Prices can vary from yard to yard. At least with copper and alum. its that way.
