Someone in my area (on Craigs List) has a 94 IDI Turbo engine with transmission and transfer for sale and he is asking $4500. The engine has new injectors, IP, and turbo. No millage listed. Sounds a little high. Am I right?

 

seems kinda high to me.........

 

call him and ask him y so much when there are other for say a 1000 it will drop quick

 

About $3000 to high. Unless it has only 10000 actual miles and the seller can PROVE it.

 

Thats about what I was thinking too! I only paid $4300 for my entire truck, its not a turbo but its in great shape.

 

Transmission and transfer case included.
Depending on what transmission and how many miles are on the engine that may or may not be a decent deal.

 

Find the mileage, a new motor from a chain store runs about $5k. You can usually find wasted trucks with low mileage reman motors for less than $2k. There's one on my CL right now with 30k miles going for $800, and thats a complete truck.

 

I only paid $500 more than that for my whole truck.

 

I just paid 600 dollars for a truck 2 days ago, there no way i would ever pay that much for a truck or engine, i would put that much into one to build me a hot rod but i would never buy a stock engine for that

 

If the transmission is an E4OD, how much would that cost?

Like most things, when you don't need one they can be found for cheap.
When you need one, the prices always seem to get much higher, and if you need one bad enough you will pay the price.
