Tim brings up a good point. Cylinders for these old 4 banger Continental engines can be hard to find at times. Ballpark price on a overhauled (yellow tagged) set these days is $800 per assy. New ones can be found but not easily and these are over $1000 per cylinder.
If you have a "0" time engine its worth at least $4k in cylinders and such alone, without considering the crankcase. The A65 engines are in a bit of demand, but the C85, C90 and O-200 models bring a lot higher price.
