Just curious as to how popular or how much they’re worth as a complete engine

 

Lotta variables depending on many things
Location?
Condition?
Modifications?
Genuine Toyota head casting?
Previous boring, decking, crank grinding that limit future rebuilds?
Likely somewhere between two hundred and two thousand dollars.

 

Hmm. Not to be mean, but that’s the type of user name/seller I avoid on Amazon.

But to answer your question, that’s a tough call. Some people shop by price alone, and inexpensive engines had corners cut and inferior parts used. Usually vague on describing the work done. That market is pretty flooded, too.
Those willing to spend more for a quality engine need documentation. Something showing the work done, the machining, and the parts source. I don’t necessarily mean expensive upgrades, just parts from a proven supplier like NPR, Aisin, OSK,etc etc

 

Sorry about the name it’s just what it picked for me but to be honest I’m not a Toyota type of person but my wife’s late father was very into Toyotas. He had multiple Toyotas when he died my wife u know they ended up selling most of them but tucked back in the garage there is an engine 22r it’s all there I believe. it’s not locked up for sure. I don’t know what to come out of or what it was running but it’s definitely not locked up and as I look online it seems like it’s pretty complete, that’s why I was really just wondering the price and value of them before I put it for sale

 

Well, it’s possible to do some simple diagnostics on it to get a better idea of how healthy it is.
*oil smell and color? Any metalic?
* pull valve cover, inspect cam
*pull plugs and inspect
*scope cylinders
*pull oil pan, check rod bearings and look for junk in the pan.

 

I would advise you to look around on eBay and Facebook marketplace to get a good idea about what a used 22R sells for. Then you probably need to accept the fact that all of these engines are in unknown to you condition and so you probably need to consider that when you sell them. Just my two cents.

 

Plainly not a fresh rebuild. A pig in a poke.
If it turns free, it's worth no more than 400 dollars.
Might bring half that in some markets.

 

Seen more than one carb engine cranked, and let run for a few minutes to sell it. Back in the day, I would not buy a used carb engine until I saw it cranked and run for a few minutes.

 

Maybe unbolt the oil pan and cylinder head so a buyer can see inside and get some idea if the engine is rebuildable. It’s clearly been sitting for a long time.

if the head and cam are in good shape(and oem) you could probably sell them on CL or eBay for more than an untested engine would bring. Carb, air cleaner housing, timing cover, crank pulley all have value, too. Just depends how much time you want to spend.
