Seems like a reasonable price to me. I have seen them for less and I've seen them for more.

Depends on the year. Some are in more demand than others. I paid $800.00 three years ago for an 86 trans. However it needed $5k worth of parts to rebuild it. Buyer beware....

Wait, $3000 for a core? You mention $500 for a core? Are you looking for a rebuild? I do those for way less than $3k.
Pretty common to get a 915 for around $800, unknown condition. With some patience you can get them for a little less, but not usually much. |

QUOTE(GeorgeRud @ Jan 25 2015, 08:27 PM)  One just sold on the BirdBoard for $650 ( unknown condition). I paid 900 and when it was rebuilt, it was in great condition. I purchased a higher R/P for my conversion and that was three times the cost of the Trans! OUCH! |

I'm thinking $2.5K is the rebuilt unit, plus a $500 core charge. So $3K for rebuilt 915 with no core.
The price is OK but it still doesn't include the cost of installing it into a 914 with linkage and shifter. And does that price include flipping the diff? The 915 is going to be expensive. The conversion kit is another $3K, I've seen one Velios kit selling for $1K My opinion is, although it has it's place as a 916 trans style conversion, it's not the greatest box and it's just a tad spendy. Just a tad... |

So, you are selling and looking for a value, then?

Ohhh (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) then I would pass... mike914 (Colbourne ON) sold a core one last year for $800 Really you need a plan and budget before you start buying stuff, gets expensive if you buy the wrong stuff. |

Ya, you can drop stupid $$ not knowing what you are doing with a 915. 914 trans is much cheaper. Dont rush, get a plan, then source parts and wait for deals. At Hershey I think that most are going for around $700-800.
