In the last year I have rebuilt new 140hp & 180hp engines for my licensed
cars and the cost each time has been near $2000.
I agree with others that nobody wants to give a decent price for a good used
engine.
Not bad for an Engine rebuild, just price out some paint if you want sticker 
shock. My body man next door just painted his brother in-laws 65 Impala in 
Regal Red $400 per gal and just did a van in purple pearl the pearl was $135 per 
oz. And here I am with 3 cars and a Ultravan to paint this summer LOL.

 As for spare Engines count me with 2 180's and a 110 that are good runners 
plus 4 others that are questionable, not counting the 6 in cars and the Ultra. 
Plus parts for probably 3 or 4  140's
