It's a double overhead cam hemi with high compression. It is designed to turn about 12,500 rpm with a 14x6. No higher than 10% nitro.

If never run, probably $600.00 or so.

If this is the one I saw once its humongous for its cc . Could be another engine though but same config.

It's tall because of the 4 valve Over Head Cams, but fairly light.This is the the original Conley Precision Version, I owned this particular one for several years.

It was originally the Conley 120, I had two and ran one. It wasn't an earth shaker. It was sold and became the Abatar and had some small changes to it. It sold for very few years and disappeared from production. It was a low volume engine and the Conley original is really scarce and the Abatar is just scarce.
As to value there is one for sale in the classified ads at $700.00. Personally I'd spend my money on something that I'd use rather than have it on the shelf to perhaps impress 2 or 3 individuals that might actually care.
