Default what to pay for a knackered engine

hi folks,

what should i expect topay for a knackered 93-96 wrx engine with bottom end failure (long engine)?
Im looking about for one to learn/rebuild with and prices seem to vary a lot. is £150 for a open deck with bearing failure too much?

Yes too much - I think free sounds about right.

Could be worth putting a post in the wanted section, like Duncan said if the engine is destined for the bin you might find somebody with a knackered one that they would be happy for you just to take it out their road.
