Default How much should I ask for he motor?

Hey Guys, Sorry, I posted this in a Jeep Forum, most of the wording it applied to Jeep GC's, but since it shares the same motor, I thought I'd check here for some input on the price for the motor as well. So please don't get upset about the Jeep talk, as I am copying/pasting the details, instead of rewriting it to be more pertinent to this thread.

A while back I bought a WJ for parts for what was my wife's current WJ. By the time I got everything said and done, my wife wanted a new(er) vehicle. so I went and bought her a WK. Anyway, I still have the parts WJ, and someone is interested in the motor, that is seized up. I guess their's isn't rebuildable and this one is. We haven't decided if I am pulling it for them or if they want to come pull it, etc. Either way, pulling it will be relatively easy, as I pulled the transmission and T-case out already for the other Jeep, and they want the wiring harness too (maybe theirs had a fire or something), so it just a matter of mounts and cutting ties off the harness holding it to the body and pull it all out.

I'm curious what you guys think I should ask for the seized 2002 4.7 motor and wiring harness, and how much I should charge for labor if I have to pull it out myself?

500 parts and 500 labor would be my fair guess. Or 700 parts and 300 labor if you want to be more fair.
