The V8CF-220 is:
  • 220HP @ 4400RMP
  • 9.5:1 compression ratio
  • 327 cid

I don't know what it is worth, but you could post it for sale in the classifieds.

As to it's value one would need to know if it was freshwater cooled or not. Or was it used in other than salt water. If it was a "salt water" engine it is of no value except for parts like the reverse gear, carb etc for someone that currently has one. This engine is a Rambler V8. They made a really nice marine conversion.
Hope this helps

I have an operators handbook that covers the 280 and 310HP models. It has very basic details. What do you seek?
