I am looking to do a 3L swap and I am wondering how much I could get for my entire 2.5L SVT Engine.
The engine has 49k on it and its from a 1998 CSVT.
How much would you think I would get for the engine? Would it be better if I just parted it out?

Where's your justification for this? What a poor reply.
I assume your doing a direct swap then, and using the entire 3L engine. I would think you would get more money parting out your SVT engine. The SVT cams hold value for a lot of people. You could easily get $300 for the cams. The UIM and LIM you could probably get another $300 easy for the two of them. On the rest of the engine, there really isn't that much to be had. You could always try and sell the rest assuming everything is in good working order. You would probably get more money parting it out rather than as a whole engine. So unless someone offers you a good chunk of change for the engine whole, I'd part it out.

Id say you could make atleast 500$+ off of it especially with the low mileage..

Did he really. That kid is worthless if he did.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
