Default /6 225 in '72 Dodge Dart Demon

There is a running Slant 6 225 in a '72 Dart Demon that I might buy, how much is the engine worth itself? It's in pretty good condition, runs... Anyone know how much it's worth?

It's worth exactly the amount you are willing to pay for it. I've seen them given away and a running engine in a wrecking yard will run $100, or more, depending on location and the type of yard. I honestly wouldn't give over $50 and that would mean I trust the guy who sold it.

How much would a 340 or 360 cost? I'm looking to put one of the two in my Demon...

Jump naked and put a 360 stoker(408) in the Demon and it'll REALLY be a DEMON!! 6 grand will get the motor(I just put a 390 in my '98 Dak, based on a 5.2L). The 408 in a light car like the Demon will eat Rustangs, Cameos, Firechickens and most 'Vettes. Work off a Magnum motor, they have much better stock heads, and other stuff for unleaded gas. Hughes Engines(where I got mine) can give you close to 600HP on pump gas. This motor will get you a 13 sec. car, and that's DAMN quick.

Lightbulb Build the Slant...

My Slant Six car (Barracuda) will eat Rustanges, Crameors and Firechickens and I have less then $2k in the motor.

The SL6 is pretty common and so durable that not many people want (or need) one.
Truth is that Mopar made over 13 million SL6 engines so there are still a bunch of them around.
