WTB: renesis cores

Interested in any reasonably priced renesis cores. Can be 4 port, 6 port, any year. Just looking to build up stock on my shelf for future rebuilds, which will in turn benefit the community as a whole later on.

Don't come to me with perfectly running used engines you want 1800+ for. Come to me with weak/tired engines that are low on compression or actually blown in some form or another, that you want to sell for a few hundred or a grand at most. Bear in mind I have to pay $140-250 shipping in addition to what I pay you, and like a trip to the casino, buying rotary cores can sometimes pay off but you usually lose your *** depending on what is inside. I will want some details as to the failure involved, and will make an offer/negotiate based upon what I think is going to be reuseable internally.

Also interested in individual components reasonably priced...rotors, housings, irons, shafts.

I dont really need all the stuff that goes on the engines, such as intakes, wiring, etc. but I will accept partially or fully complete longblocks for the right price.

Depending on what you have and when you offer it, I may not be able to buy it right then depending on how my work/business has been recently. I'm just trying to get a feel for what is out there, if anything.

I can set up my own shipping, btw, all you'd need to do is put the engine on a pallet and secure it.

Yes, just about any time, but depending on my budget at the time I may or may not be able to buy it right away.
