I have several K181 motors that all have been gone thru and serviced and run excellent. They came off of traffic signal boards and are still hooked up to a alterantor off of the pulley to run the electrical to the traffic signal boards. What is a fair price for a used rebuilt K181 motor which will sell with the alternator setup that it originally was setup for.

Tried posting pictures and cannot seem to make that happen help please.

It's going to depend on now bad a person wants one. Its the engine that they modify for pulling tractors and parts are available to build them up. If I was to take a guess off the top of my head I would say $600 + each. They have to be getting harder to find. I know a guy that got some pulling tractors that was telling me he gets 50 to 60 HP out them engines. Don't know if its a BS story or not but he also said that he can got as much as 100 HP out of one???
