What is my engine worth ( trevor simpson. )

Recommended Posts

I am toying with the idea of putting up my engine for sale. It is a trevor simpson 28.5cc engine 15 to 1 compression with advance timing cover. 4 bolt head with the Trevor simpson head.
I am looking on some prices on the bare engine
Then a price of a complete ready to run engine with the elcon clutch, baratone pipe, turtle racing pull start, alloy clutch holder, a 990 carb

the only reason i am toying with the idea of selling is because  i am a basher and this engine seems to be more of a racer spec. I don't want it to go to waste at my hands. This was bought along with my losi when buying it second hand around 2 years ago and has only been a total of around 3 hours in my time. 

All i have been told about this engine that it is highly sort after, and rare to come across being sold complete. 

Anyway thank you all for your time and time for some pictures

A very difficult question to answer.  From a purchasers perspective one needs to assume that the engine is at best in need of a rebuild.  Expensive engines are such a risk from a purchasers perspective... Describe it fairly, ideally take the head off so people can see the bore, provide a new ring and gaskets and you'll get reasonable money for it... I'd suggest eBay is the best place for that to be sold.  Let it find its own 'fair market value' price...
