Ive been looking at ebay and Im not sure of any other places to find these engines. Anyone know where I can find some? The ones on ebay are going from 14.99 and up with around 5 for shipping.

Have you checked local hobby shops, I managed to find the 427, 283 and 354's at my LHS for $4.99, bought 2 of each, that's where I'd check first.

I'm not sure what you are looking for on ebay that is showing you 14.99 engines with 5 dollar shipping. Most of the ones i see are 5. After three searches I have only found a couple listings that have them for 14.99. Their is a guy on ebay that sells them for 5 each with free shipping.

AMT or Revell Parts pack engines? I just saw the Stevens International re-issued AMT engines kit for $27.00 or so at a LHS.

Right now on Emodelcars, our own website, there are three of them for sale by Kustomkat1 at 5 bucks apiece! You have but to ask, and it's right close to home! Hope this helps.B):)

Ford engine...

Well that narrows it down.

But seriouly- if you tell us exactly what engine you want, I'm sure someone could point you to the parts pack engine or a newer engine from a complete kit. Those parts pack molds are 40+years old...not very detailed.

Sweet thank you. Its added to my watch list I've been hoping to get all four.

Bob has been good for me....I have bought these from him for years now, factory boxes and quick delivery :P

Sounds about right for Ebay...for the ORIGINAL Revell items...$14.00 to $20.00 not including shipping.

The re-releases can usually be had cheaper...but I don't think the Revell Buick Nail-Head was re-released w/ the Chevy283, the 427 Ford or the Caddy.

Im good for now lol I just bought all four engines for ten bucks. Once I get some more money I will buy more.

yeah i notice the seller you bought from has a bunch for sale, 4 at a time or 8 at a time. at $10 for four motors, with shipping PAID, its a bargain. im going to go 20 on eight of them. the seller must have bought up a warehouse of unsold stock or something.

Right at 2.50 apiece you cant beat that. Don't buy them all lol I don't know if I could find them that cheap.
